Background

ITAC is proud to be hosting the 9th International Indigenous Tourism Conference (IITC) on Treaty 1 Territory and the Homeland of the Métis in Winnipeg, Manitoba, from March 8 – 10, 2023. This international event has been successfully hosted by ITAC and delivered through the partnerships of the various regional Indigenous tourism organizations, having already been delivered in British Columbia, Quebec, Nova Scotia, Alberta and Saskatchewan. The 2019 IITC in Kelowna, British Columbia exceeded expectations with sold out success and brought together Indigenous tourism operators from across Canada and around the world for three days of sharing best practices and networking. Over 700 delegates participated in panel discussions, breakout sessions, keynote presentations and local cultural experiences.
