2012 Los Angeles Times Travel Show to Parade the Who’s Who of the Travel World

The Los Angeles Times Media Group has already started its promotion efforts for next year’s Los Angeles Times Travel Show, the 14th edition of this tradition of the LA Convention Center. Rated among the top 10 trade shows and conventions in Southern California by BizBash, the LA Times Travel Show aims to impress and show that not only Hollywood has its very own hall of fame. The weekend event scheduled for January 27-29 will bring together the who’s who of all things travel, from bestselling authors and world renowned journalists to company founders and travel experts.

Apart form putting on a show, in the very glamorous City of Angels style, the travel show will also keep to its more down to earth goals, such as inspiring, informing and educating travel enthusiasts to help them maximize their experiences when booking their next trip.

Lisa Ling (“Our America”), Rick Steves (“Rick Steves’ Europe Through the Back Door”), Adam Richman (“Man v. Food Nation,” “America the Edible”) and Arthur Frommer (Frommer’s travel guides), Johnny Jet (JohnnyJet.com) and Leon Logothetis (“Amazing Adventures of a Nobody”), Times’ award-winning Travel editor Catharine Hamm, and vacation value experts Gabe Saglie (Travelzoo) and Doug Miller (LivingSocial Escapes) will all be there to delight you with their knowledge and passion for travel.
