Social Events
The dinners and parties are the events which ‘make’ The Travel Convention. It may seem like everyone’s relaxing, but behind the banter and laughter, there’s some serious networking going on.
Gran Canaria is well known for throwing terrific parties and the Mega Fiesta and Starlight Party will be no exception. Expect fireworks!
