Online Destination Experience - Ekaterinburg - KONGRES – Europe Events and Meetings Industry Magazine

THE ONLINE VERSION OF OUR BESTSELLER

"TRY BEFORE YOU BUY" FORMAT

Try Before You Buy is one of our most successful projects, that has been organised in live form for many different destinations. Our concept is innovative, as it allows potential buyers to experience the destination first-hand through exciting activities. Unfortunately, the live version of Try Before You Buy was stopped in its tracks by COVID-19. The Toleranca Marketing team has used the lockdown period for developing and testing different forms of online events and decided to carry out an ONLINE DESTINATION EXPERIENCE. The first online version of the “Try Before You Buy” experience will be hosted by Ural Congress Bureau

EXPERIENCE THE URALS FROM YOUR LIVING ROOM

Join the online destination experience, hosted by Ural Congress Bureau. The engaging online event will bring you closer to Ekaterinburg, the heart of the Ural region. Ekaterinburg lies on the border between Europe and Asia and bridges the gap between the two parts of the world, which is one of its key advantages. Historically, Yekaterinburg has been perceived as the entrance to Asia, which could explain it grew into one of the most developed countries in Russia.

EKATERINBURG IS WAITING FOR YOU!

Forget every stereotype that you’ve heard about Ekaterinburg. Only one is true. The winters are extremely cold, but the people, extremely warm and immensely hospitable. Ekaterinburg is the creative industry capital, a science hub and the heart of one of the most impressive congress stories. It should certainly be on your list of must-visit destination after COVID-19.
