Seattle, WA, 2014-5-16 — /Travel PR News/ — The 2014 Adventure Travel Mexico (ATMEX) event has officially relocated to adventure travel hub, Chiapas, Mexico. This is the third year that Visit Mexico, in partnership with the Adventure Travel Trade Association, will host ATMEX with the goals of bringing awareness to Mexico’s adventure travel offerings, providing educational opportunities and creating a foundation for long-term business partnerships.
“ATMEX was conceived as an event which would move yearly in order for us to be able to showcase the best of the best adventure travel opportunities in Mexico. Though ATMEX in Veracruz has been very successful, now it is time for Chiapas, one of the top adventure destinations in Mexico, to be highlighted,” stated Executive Director of Latin America, Antonio Del Rosal. “We are very happy to return here after the Adventure Travel World Summit which was held in 2011. Chiapas has a unique blend of nature and culture paralleled by very few destinations around the world. It’s the perfect venue for ATMEX.”
ATMEX’s inauguration cocktail and “Day of Adventures” will take place in San Cristobal, August 26th and 27th; the marketplace, concurrent and plenary sessions will take place in Tuxtla Convention Center August 28th and 29th.
