“Because of the prevailing uncertainty, postponing this event, the most important in the national and Latin American tourism industry, will allow the normalization of mobility; it will help participants to be in the best conditions to do business in a face-to-face format,” he said.
The unit added that the new dates were chosen after analyzing the calendar of international fairs, which will allow for more significant assistance based on their agendas.
“We are sure that this change will benefit Mexico’s tourism industry; we will have the necessary conditions to have a successful Tianguis Turístico in Merida,” they say.
The government of Yucatan, through Sefotur and its head, Michelle Fridman, will continue to work with Sectur and the business sector. The 2021 edition is expected to be a watershed for realizing the resilient and innovative Tianguis Turístico in Mexico.
