Making CRUSA Work for You

In addition to our Sales & Marketing Opportunities, there are numerous ways for destinations and attractions in the Capital Region to increase your reach with CRUSA’s international audiences:

Overseas Tourism is Big Business for the USA

Overseas visitors stay longer and spend more money in the Capital Region than visitors from the USA. In 2019, 2.40 million overseas travelers visited the Capital Region, stayed an average of 9.4 nights and spent nearly $5.2 billion on hotels, meals, shopping, attractions, and other goods and services across Washington, DC, Maryland and Virginia.

Global Travel Exchange

Capital Region USA's Global Travel Exchange (GTE) is an annual marketplace designed to connect the region's travel suppliers, overseas buyers, travel trade media, and receptive operators in face-to-face appointments, regional familiarization tours, and engaging networking events.

The 2023 GTE will be hosted in Annapolis, Maryland from September 18-20.  Register here
