WFTGA SIRACUSA 2024: A pleasant experience for all participants
We believe that WFTGA Siracusa 2024 will be a unique opportunity for all participants to enjoy to the fullest the magic atmosphere of Siracusa and take a deep dive into the history of Sicily whilst networking with international experts and professionals in the tourist guiding field both at and outside the meetings.
The 360 degrees WFTGA Siracusa 2024 experience
The 360 degrees WFTGA Siracusa 2024 experience will start with the Opening Ceremony held at Teatro Comunale, Siracusa’s cradle of culture and entertainment. It will be followed by a traditional Sicilian-themed dinner and an exclusive Puppet show.
During the Convention week, all activities and social events are tailored to offer WFTGA SIRACUSA 2024 participants a once-in-a-lifetime chance to discover the extraordinary beauty of Sicily’s natural environment and the opulence of its architectural heritage. Palazzo Landolina, the venue of one of our social dinners, is an amazing example of Val di Noto’s late Baroque style.
WFTGA Siracusa 2024 will offer a wide range of keynote lectures, convention seminars, and field workshops, open to all participants, in addition to a dedicated programme for accompanying persons, tourist guides, and delegates. And for attendees interested in the in-depth discovery of local culture and traditions there will be a more unconventional and enjoyable approach! WFTGA Siracusa 2024 will invite you to cooking classes, handicraft activities, and food and flavour tastings.
