On October 10, 11 and 12, 70 inbound tourism companies located in Costa Rica and 10 international guests from Europe and the United States were invited to not only learn first-hand about the more than 100 activities offered in La Fortuna, but also the tourist gems that Río Celeste, Río Cuarto, El Castillo, San Vicente and Los Chiles hold.

The invited companies met with 70 companies from these tourist areas and also had the opportunity to make an inspection visit to the new tourist activities that are opening in the northern region. 

“Expo Arenal 2024 is taking place within the framework of the October Thermal activities, representing the most relevant and impactful promotion strategy in the area. Its format and the participation of various actors from the local and national private sector, the public sector and the press make this event an exceptional platform for promoting the region's tourism product,” said the president-elect of the Arenal Chamber of Tourism and Commerce, Tadeo Morales. 

The Expo Arenal 2024 was the first experience with an invitation to international companies organized by a regional chamber, in this case, the Arenal Chamber of Tourism and Commerce. During this business meeting, the Minister of Tourism, William Rodríguez, also participated, who also made a tour to learn about the new options that are being offered to national and international tourists.

“I am positively surprised by the efforts that all local actors and tourism entrepreneurs in the Northern Zone have made to improve the tourism product, as well as the strengthening of other emerging destinations in the region. Precisely, with the Comprehensive Management Program for Tourist Destinations, led by the ICT, joint lines of action are established to empower communities and local decision makers towards the achievement of clear goals and objectives for strategic growth in the short and medium term. The Expo Arenal is, without a doubt, the ideal space to gradually show this new offer and develop face-to-face business within the framework of the October Thermal 2024 activities,” said the head of Tourism, William Rodríguez.

With this successful edition of Expo Arenal 2024, the northern region reaffirms its commitment to establish itself as an unmissable destination for national and international tourism. The natural wealth, authentic experiences and the warmth of its people will continue to attract visitors from all over the world, generating business and development opportunities for local communities.
