An annual event outside London, bringing together travel media from across the UK & Ireland, with PR representatives from all over the world.
Join us in Leeds from the 5th-7th June 2023
We’re back!
Hosted by Visit Leeds and The Queens Hotel Leeds, Media Getaway 2023 will give PR representatives of global travel brands the chance to get away with travel media for a 2-day event, with plenty of ways to meet through formal and informal networking opportunities.
The event will see people attending from all over the UK & Ireland, including media not usually encountered at a London event.
The Schedule
The event will commence with an informal welcome evening on 5th June, giving all delegates their first opportunity to mingle with the other attendees.
On 6th June, all delegates will take part in the CONNECTION ZONE, a media marketplace where travel companies will sit at tables and host a series of 1-1 meetings with attending media, all of which will have been set up through a dedicated virtual platform created for the event.
This will be followed by a drinks reception in the evening, before we all hit the streets of Leeds to enjoy the night life.
On 7th June media will be able to enjoy trips around the Greater Leeds area, visiting some of Visit Leeds’ key partners. These trips are available for all attendees, if they wish to stay and enjoy the city’s hospitality.
Who will be there?
Travel media from across the UK & Ireland and PR representatives from all over the world.
Many of our attendees don’t attend events in London so there will be plenty of connections to be made.

How much does it cost?
Each PR representative will pay a delegate fee, which covers attendance, food and some beverages at the event. The fee also covers the costs of accommodation for attending media, ensuring more journalists will be able to attend.
We have agreed a special rate at our partner hotels for anyone attending from outside the area, and that information will be made available very soon.
Any media wishing to stay overnight will receive complimentary accommodation at the Queens Hotel or one of the neighbouring hotel partners.
