"Do you love discovering new cultures, indulging in unfamiliar foods, and learning about different countries? Destinations 2012 is here to provide you with fresh ideas and information with hundreds of exhibitors including tour operators and cruise companies to guide you to the holiday of a lifetime".
The perfect place to get some inspiration for holidays in 2012 and beat those winter blues! The show will feature a range of exhibitors, celebrity speakers, explorers, historians and news correspondents. There will also be a range of cultural performances taking place on the Entertainment Stage.
The Manchester show will host performances from Manchester School of Samba, Red Fan Chinese Dance Society as well as African drumming and Egyptian, Ukrainian, Cuban and Punjabi dancing. In addition, Tropical Inc will be bringing along a selection of animals including meerkats, skunks, snakes and macaws!
It's disappointing that whilst there are no fewer than 13 celebrity speakers, explorers, historians and news correspondents booked for the London show as well as the Amateur Photographer Travel Photography Theatre; there are only 4 speakers and no photography theatre for the Manchester show. Alas, us folk up north will have to make do with what we've got...perhaps Sir Trevor McDonald OBE and others will make the journey up to Manchester next year...
