Tourism Matters: Videos
VTC has created a series of videos called Tourism Matters. You can download these videos or share them on your social channels! The footage was filmed at VA-1 in 2019, and features tourism leaders from across Virginia speaking to the power of tourism. These videos will be powerful advocacy tools for your partners and your stakeholders. If you have any trouble accessing these videos, please let us know!
During NTTW, we encourage you to lead with the Road to Recovery video. This video offers powerful messaging about how your local residents area key part of the tourism community.
