Visit Orlando plans London, Manchester and Glasgow events

Visit Orlando has partnered with major Florida attractions to host agent training events in London, Manchester and Glasgow during April.

The tourist board is working with Walt Disney World Resort, Universal Orlando Resort and SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment to offer training via Orlando Live!.

Casandra Matej, Visit Orlando president and chief executive, said: “The UK remains our top overseas international market, with Orlando holidays currently high in demand.

“Orlando Live! gives travel advisors the opportunity to learn more about our destination to maximise new business while enjoying a fun, interactive and memorable experience – just like a trip to Orlando.”

Representatives from Orlando will provide updates about new hotels, attractions and experiences and the event will include games and opportunities to win prizes.

Agents will be entered for a chance to win a trip to Orlando for the 2023 Ultimate Orlando Experience Fam taking place later this year.

To qualify, they must complete the Orlando Travel Academy before attending an Orlando Live! event.

Orlando Live! will be at One Marylebone, London, on April 24; Manchester Science Museum on April 26; and at Glasgow’s Hampden Park on April 27.

Registration for each event begins at 5:30pm and the evening will end at 10pm, with food and drink provided.
