The Northwest Dive & Travel Expo 2012 will take place this year at the Greater Tacoma Convention & Trade Center April 21-22 (with an exhibitor/industry only day on Friday April 20) and this year the expo is offering visitors more information, more dive industry connections and more fun!
This annual diving extravaganza focuses on everything scuba diving. This year’s event will host 50+ free seminars on everything from underwater photography to first aid with DAN. Visitors will be able to meet guest speakers from all over the country as they present the hottest topics in scuba. Guests will get a chance to update their diving skills, discover great new innovations and be inspired by divers who will share their experiences.
There will also be 300+ exciting exhibit booths to explore. Vendors from all over the world will be available to answer questions as well as introduce divers to the latest in scuba diving. Visitors will see brand new diving businesses alongside industry standards like Oceanic and White’s. There will also be booths manned by industry organizations such as PADI and NAUI. Here is a chance for industry wide organizations to meet and reconnect with their membership and share their plans for the upcoming year.
This years’ expo will also offer visitors a chance to meet those who offer resort services all over the world. Come put faces with the names of the resorts throughout the dive vacation industry and let them tell you what they have to offer first hand.
This year there will be a new and improved kid’s section offering 3-9 year olds a chance to have some interactive fun. Bring the kids and we’ll keep them busy teaching them a bit about the oceans.
We have some new fun for the adults this year as well with an on land in show treasure hunt. Guests will be able to obtain a treasure map and using some of today’s technology as well as the show floor and the vendor booths search for buried treasure!
