National Travel and Tourism Week
Visit The Woodlands joins destinations across the state and country to recognize the annual National Travel and Tourism Week. This has always been a time to acknowledge the economic impact of meetings, events, concerts and visitors to The Woodlands' economy. In this new season of COVID-19, the week has changed to a month and from hosting in-person events and meetings to a virtual salute to the "Spirit of Hospitality."
Due to COVID-19, hotels, restaurants and retail had to close or modify their services; now we are seeing things reopen with enhanced safety protocols. We have all been introduced to new faces that have emerged during COVID-19 such as first responders, the hospital and medical community and the front line staff at pharmacies and grocery stores. The Woodlands is known for the “Spirit of Hospitality” that each of them embody.
Show your love of The Woodlands in your next virtual meeting or family happy hour with our complimentary Zoom backgrounds from Visit The Woodlands. From illustrations to scenes from around The Woodlands, you can now share them with your friends and coworkers as you "meet."
