ABA taps Omaha, Neb. for 2020's Marketplace
The dates of the 2020 Marketplace will be Jan. 10 to 14, 2020. This is the first time ABA has come to Omaha for its annual event.
The American Bus Association's 2020 Marketplace will be Jan. 10 to 14 in Omaha, Neb.
The American Bus Association (ABA) announced Omaha, Neb., as the site of its 2020 ABA Annual Meeting & Marketplace. The dates of the Marketplace will be Jan. 10 to 14, 2020. This is the first time ABA has come to Omaha for its annual event.
"We look forward to bringing our ABA Annual Meeting & Marketplace to Omaha in 2020," said ABA President/CEO Peter Pantuso, CTIS. "Omaha offers a lot for the travel and tourism industry, and we look forward to showing our members a great city and encouraging them to add Omaha to their destination offerings."
In 2017, ABA’s meeting in Cleveland welcomed more than 3,400 tour operators, travel industry suppliers, and exhibitors and generated approximately $115.9 million in booked business during the event and immediately afterward.
Noting all that Omaha has to offer and its proximity to all major cities in the midwest, it was an easy decision to choose the city to host this gathering of motorcoach, tour, and travel professionals from all over the U.S. and Canada.
