Our schedule changes each year, but sessions and workshops are always offered at intermediate and advanced levels and cover a wide array of topics related to business development, content creation, industry trends, and hard skills. Sessions are 60 minutes and prioritize learning and education. Workshops are 90 minutes and allow additional time for practical skill development. Our Friday morning half-day Beginner Bootcamp (further outlined below) is also offered for those new to digital content creation to get a head start on the rest of the weekend.

Yes and we hope you do! All genders are welcome and invited to join us for all the professional development, networking, tours and activities, and important conversations that happen at WITS. Just keep in mind that what sets WITS apart from other travel conferences is that we’re intentional about working to elevate women and underrepresented creators in travel. That said, our attendees range across the gender spectrum and we encourage everyone to use the pronouns that are shared by others at the event and use gender-neutral language whenever possible. We are firmly committed to diversity and inclusion and aim to make our events inclusive for attendees of all races, nationalities, religions, sexual orientations, genders and expressions, ages, body sizes, and abilities. If you have a suggestion for how we can better accommodate you, we’d genuinely love to hear from you at wits@sheswanderful.com.

WITS is primarily for content creators and businesses. At our events, you’ll find everyone including influencers, bloggers, journalists, travelers, writers, creators, PR/brand reps, entrepreneurs, nonprofit employees, business developers, photographers, multimedia producers, teachers, and more. Creator tickets are for media only and are subsidized in exchange for website and social media coverage during the event. Industry tickets are for empowered travel professionals and travel company reps, although we highly recommend that industry members look into our partnership opportunities, as partnering with us will likely produce better ROI for you at only a small increase in cost. Small businesses can also get a free ticket as a Wanderful Small Business Brand Partner. "Regular" ticket holders will need to purchase an Industry ticket, but if you're simply a travel lover who wants to connect with other travelers, we recommend our sister event, Wanderfest. We also have a limited number of press tickets available for journalists who will be covering WITS in major news publications. Please contact us at wits@sheswanderful.com to inquire about a press ticket. You must be able to show proof of employment at a major news organization in order to qualify for a press ticket.

There are a few ways you can get involved: purchase a ticket, get your company or brand to sponsor or exhibit, or volunteer with us (scroll down to sign up for our newsletter to find out when volunteer opportunities open).

So much! Access to any session you’d like to attend, entry to all our official parties and events (including the Bessie Awards), and our famous Sunday Brunch — plus the opportunity to network with amazing influencers and brands, the chance to snag a ticket for some special city tours and FAM trips, and a ton of free swag. Note that in order to attend Beginner Bootcamp sessions, you must add Beginner Bootcamp to your ticket when you purchase it.

Beginner Bootcamp sessions are an extra pre-conference block of programming (with an extra meal included!), specifically designed for attendees who are new to blogging and digital content creation and interested in becoming a travel influencer. This is an opportunity for beginner bloggers (or those who have not yet started a blog but would like to) to get a head start on the exciting and informative sessions taking place at WITS. Participants will learn from experienced bloggers, influencers, and entrepreneurs about content development and promotion. Beginner Bootcamp costs $100 USD more than a regular ticket, and will take place on Friday morning before regular sessions begin. If you’d like to attend, be sure to add on Beginner Bootcamp when you purchase your ticket. If you did not purchase a Beginner Bootcamp ticket and would like to attend, you can purchase it individually in the same way you’d purchase a regular ticket.

A limited number of volunteers will be offered free tickets to WITS in exchange for their service at the event. Scroll down to the bottom of this page to sign up for our newsletter and find out when applications open.

Contact us at wits@sheswanderful.com and we’ll see if we can work it out.

Official WITS activities begin on the morning of Friday, 19 May and last through the afternoon of Sunday, 21 May. Pre- and post-conference tours and FAM trips begin a few days before and end a few days after these dates. Regardless of if you plan to join us on a tour or FAM trip, we recommend coming into town one to three days before and/or after WITS weekend so that you can maximize your time sightseeing in the area.

Check out our partnerships page. We are seeking inspired companies that are interested both in growing or enhancing their relationship with travelers and working with travel content creators and influencers. Partnership opportunities include online promotions, booth space, giveaways, official parties, coffee hours, tours, and more. This is just a taste; we encourage you to contact us to discuss how we can give your brand the exposure it deserves.

Probably not. Any tours or official events (like our opening party) that stray far from the hotel will have transportation provided.
