To All Members,

 

Sub: Calling off of 37th IATO Annual Convention scheduled from 15-18 September 2022 in Bangalore

 

Dear Friends,

With a heavy heart we would like to inform that the 37th IATO Annual Convention which was scheduled to be held in Bangalore from 15th to 18th September 2022 has been called off due to unavoidable circumstances arising out of the withdrawal of support by the Karnataka Tourism in spite of giving written confirmation for hosting the convention and making the announcement at the inaugural function of 36th IATO Annual Convention in Gandhinagar, Gujarat in the presence of Hon’ble Chief Minister of Gujarat and over 750 delegates.

All arrangements made for the convention at the Hilton Hotel, Hilton Garden Inn and Hilton Convention Centre in Bangalore have been cancelled due to this development which are beyond our control. This venue would have been the most attractive venue with 400 rooms and the convention centre under one roof.  

We are now looking for an alternative city/state for the having the convention which would probably be in the month of December 2022 and we shall inform you all in due course.

Thanking you and with best wishes,

 

With best regards,

 

Rajiv Mehra

President
