CLIA confirms Conference 2024 dates and schedule

Southampton will host CLIA UK & Irelands 2024 conference from May 23rd to 25th, 2024. 

Europe's largest trade cruise conference, and the 16th iteration of CLIA Conference, will host agents for ship visits, conference sessions, a trade fair and evening celebration.

Agents will have a choice of two ships over back-to-back visit days with six on offer in total. 

A 'New to Selling Cruise Day' will return on May 22nd following its launch this year, combining product and sector training for those agents making their first waves in cruise. 

Day one will host conference sessions and a full trade fair in the evening, with Cunard's Queen Anne, Silversea's Silver Dawn or Princess Cruises' Sky Princess docking for agents on day two before the evening celebration. 

The final day will see agents step aboard MSC Virtuosa, P&O Cruises' Iona or Fred Olsen's Borealis. 

Andy Harmer, CLIA UK & Ireland managing director, said: "ur 2024 conference will be our biggest yet, with more ships, an extended land programme on offer, as well as the optional training day for agents just starting out on their cruise sales journey. 

"The first-hand insight agents gain from ship visits is unbeatable, while the networking opportunities on offer over the event will be invaluable. We can’t wait to welcome partners from across the trade once again."

Registration will open soon, with CLIA EMBARC ID card holders invited to register early with an exclusive discounted link.
