The city of Concordia has been nominated for the first time in its history for the “2024 Urban Tourism Awards”. This outstanding recognition is the result of joint work between the Municipality, through the Undersecretariat of Tourism, and EMCONTUR. Concordia is the first city in the province of Entre Ríos to receive this important nomination.
The Undersecretary of Tourism, Laureano Schvartzman, expressed his enthusiasm by highlighting that “it is a great honor that the authorities and the jury of the urban tourism awards have noticed us and invited us to participate. Being shortlisted among several important cities in the country is a recognition that some things are being done well”.
Schvartzman also highlighted the importance of this visibility at a national and international level: “It is a public recognition that we appreciate and value, knowing that we have a long way to go”.
The jury evaluated several programs implemented in Concordia this year, such as Concorpass and Explorá Concordia, and the inclusion of the city in the Argentine Art Nouveau Route, which allows even Entre Ríos and the Mesopotamia to be part of this tourist circuit through Concordia.
It should be noted that in this ceremony, twelve Gold Awards and one exceptional Platinum Award will be presented, recognizing the best of urban tourism in Argentina, both in national initiatives and in tourist products from international operators.
The awards ceremony will take place on Tuesday, October 15th, at the Salón Dorado of the Teatro Colón, in Buenos Aires.
Before concluding, he highlighted that “the mayor Francisco Azcué has given us his support, emphasizing the need to continue working to make Concordia a more attractive destination for residents, tourists, and potential investors. That is why “We want to boost the development of new products and circuits, and on that path we are working in coordination with the local tourism sector” concluded the Undersecretary of Tourism, Laureano Schvartzman.
