Wedding Industry Meeting

The fourth edition of the Tuscan flagship event in the sector of weddings and private events is set to tackle the effects of the pandemic and engage with the opportunities that lie ahead for the industry. Actions and approaches that will enable the region to thrive will be the focal point of discussions, with the major fair bringing together professionals from all over to ever improve Tuscany’s offering to couples.

Realized by the Corsini Events Group, many events take place in the spectacular Teatro dei Rinnovati in Siena’s Palazzo Pubblico from November 22-23. With the previous two editions having been held in Florence and the third taking place online due to the pandemic, Siena was selected for the upcoming edition, giving acclaim to the city as a reference point for the wedding sector in Tuscany together with Florence. The fair features panel discussions and talks by experts on topics such as relaunching Tuscany as a destination and the practical aspects of restarting the sector in terms of the national economy and touristic appeal. Professionals will share their thoughts with the wide variety of guests in attendance, with speakers including luxury event leaders, tour operators, hoteliers, and entrepreneurs. A gala dinner at Santa Maria della Scala in piazza del Duomo completes proceedings. 

Suppliers, planners and agencies operating in weddings will dive into the opportunities to meet and discuss the market, with WIM21 providing the perfect fulcrum for developing communication strategies. Restart, support and strategy can be said to be three key words, with the region as a location for Destination Weddings something that will be strengthened.

The key goal at the centre of the strategizing is developing Tuscany as a leader in the national and international wedding market, with the allure of the region hardly needing explanation: centuries-old villages, breathtaking views, historic monuments at every turn and incredible food and wine draw couples from all over the world.

Tuscany for Weddings, the wedding division of the Destination Florence Convention & Visitors Bureau will be co-leaders along with Toscana Promozione Turistica who curate the promotional and marketing strategies of the sector for the region. The event is supported by the Regione Toscana and the Comune di Siena.
