Dear Tourism Industry Partner:

Welcome and thank you for visiting our new website, VisitGainesville.org., designed specifically to keep you, our Alachua County tourism partners, up-to-date about industry related news, issues, and events affecting you, your staff and ultimately, your customers.

Please take a moment to navigate through and get familiar with VisitGainesville.org as it is our goal for you to use this site as a helpful resource on a regular basis to see industry meeting notices, Tourist Development Council minutes, research, bed tax collections, marketing calendars and sales leads as well as tradeshow opportunities.

It also serves as a key communications link to you issuing timely, crucial and seasonal updates. Specifically, as we are now officially in the midst of the 2008 Hurricane season, we are including the latest hurricane “anti-gauging law” and other key tools to insure that you, your staff, and ultimately your customers are “in-the-know.”

Also, please continue refer to VisitGainesville.com – our newly revamped consumer site, which contains in-depth information and details about lodging, events as well as attractions and generally what’s new throughout Alachua County.
