This years Yukon Tourism Industry Conference is shaping up to be the most exciting one to date! Attendees will be swallowed by the beauty of Dawson City and immersed in a history and culture that is forever a part of the Yukon. The three day event will give participants the opportunity partake in numerous presentations that are guaranteed to educate us on how to make the most of the wonderful lands we have in the north.
