TP CONNECT is Tourpreneur's annual conference built entirely for tour operators.

This year - nobody is talking AT YOU from a stage. The whole event is two days of round table conversation at The Historic Seelbach Hotel in Louisville, November 17 to 18, 2026, with a welcome party the evening of the 16th. Each table has an important business topic and someone leading it who knows it deeply: an expert, a coach, or a fellow operator who has been through it. You sit down at the table working through the thing you're wrestling with right now. When the round ends, you pick your next table.

The topics come from the problems operators are always bringing us: prices you haven't raised in three years, the OTA cut you want to shrink, what to actually do with AI, finding and keeping good guides. Every table is built so you walk away with a defined strategy, a decision finally made, or a next step you can act on Monday morning.

Tickets: $249 USD. Built for both day tour and multi-day operators.
