Join us for a presentation on COVID-19 impacts to Louisiana’s tourism economy and how tourism and hospitality leaders are thinking about the future.

Date / Time:

• Tuesday, April 21, 2020
• 9:00 - 10:00 a.m. CDT

Presenters:

• Lt. Gov. Billy Nungesser
• Ben Berthelot, Lafayette Convention & Visitors Commission

With Louisiana’s stay-at-home order limiting the ability to travel, and many festivals and other events being affected for the remainder of the year, the state’s tourism economy is taking a big hit from COVID-19. How are the restaurants and hotels that depend on tourism handling these impacts? What are the biggest challenges our tourism officials see for the future of the industry, and what are the opportunities?
