The primary mission of Ottawa Tourism is to promote Ottawa as a premier destination on regional, national, and international stages. The goal is to increase the number of visitors and generate positive economic benefits for its members and the region. To achieve this, the organization collaborates with more than 450 member businesses in the tourism sector, including hotels, restaurants, cultural attractions, and service providers.
Ottawa Tourism is governed by a board of directors composed of representatives from the local tourism industry. This structure ensures transparent governance and strategic direction aligned with the needs of the tourism community.
Ottawa Tourism offers a range of services for visitors, event organizers, and travel professionals. The organization provides information on local attractions, accommodations, restaurants, and events, making it easier to plan memorable stays. It also plays a key role in organizing major conventions and events, helping to strengthen Ottawa’s position as a leading tourism destination.
