Hey SFBA Travel Massive members,
This is a call-out for members in San Francisco or the Bay Area who are interested in meeting up for a happy hour or networking.
👋 If you're interested, please add a comment here and introduce yourself.
This year we've already hosted Travel Massive meetups in LA, NYC, Oklahoma City, and in a few far flung places such as Armenia, Mumbai, Bangalore, and Uganda! It's a great way to meet with fellow members in the community and talk about travel, startups, blogging, and everything related to travel and tourism.
Hosting a Travel Massive meetup is easy (it's free, and there's no sponsorship requirements), and I'm happy to help anyone who would like to organize a gathering and announce it to this group. The time requirements to organise a meetup is ~2 hours (+ your time to attend the event and make new friends).
Looking forward to hearing from you. You can also drop me a direct email at ian@travelmassive.com
Best, Ian
Founder, Travel Massive
I would love to meet other travel professionals in the Bay Area. I'm in Alameda but can meet in SF or East Bay. Let me know how I can help!
I'm interested. I'm in Sonoma County (North Bay).
Hey all! Would love to meet up in SF.
Hello there!
Let's have a catch-up and plan it soon!
I'm interested. I'm in San Jose.
I'd love to meet up. I'm in SF.
I am with TravDek a small focused Tour Operator / DMC. I can host the event & organize in the Bay Area. I would like to understand what was done at other events?
I will be interested in knowing more on your Mumbai Meet up. I just started a team there & can have them join in.
I continue to be interested in meeting up. Besides promoting my bag business: ideamountain.com I just like to meet cool people who like to travel! Let's connect.
Hi Ian! (We met in Singapore a few years back). I just moved to San Francsico a few weeks ago (after spending the pandemic in England). Originally I'm from the East Coast, but have lived abroad (Asia & Europe) for 10 years, and have never lived in SF before. So, yes, I'm very interested in a meeting others in the industry here an making new connections. I'd be happy to help organize/host, though I'd need advice from locals about a venue.
My company is Ilex Luxury Travel (custom tours to Asia and beyond), but I'm also looking for other opportunities.
I'm in. I prefer the East Bay to SF but can do either.
I also prefer the East Bay if possible. Thanks!

Would love a Bay Area meet up! SF works great.
If you can put something together for mid June in SF, that would be great.
Thanks for all the replies everyone! I’ll send a group DM shortly to everyone who replied.
For members in San Jose, I believe the Silicon Valley Travel Massive are organizing an event soon.
We are in the Sierra foothills so perhaps East Bay would be a nice compromise. and perhaps pick a place that is good for BART or such transit in. Also, for us at least would be better if not evening since otherwise with 2 hour transit it could be pretty late. When? Need good notice.... Mid july?
I'd love to meet up. Any part of the Bay area, but SF preferred)
I'm happy to attend event in SF first choice, Berkeley second. I'm a travel, food, drink, culture, design, history etc. writer for outlets from Fodor's, AARP, Roadtrippers to Teatime. Website sharonmcdonnell.contently.com
Interested! i work with Fairmont Hotels and live in the East Bay.
I've just sent a group email to everyone who replied. If for any reason you didn't get it, DM me with your best contact details.
Hi, I just joined this group and would love to meet up at a happy hour - there are so many good places that are easily accessible in SF downtown or East Bay/ Merritt Lake area. Charmaine's rooftop is wonderful in SF.
