LGBT+ travel trade show Proud Experiences has bid farewell to host city New York after running the largest event in its three-year history.

Event director Simon Mayle said Proud Experiences had created “a rainbow industry family”

The show, which welcomed an international audience of around 300 travel suppliers, buyers, media and commentators, will move across coasts to Los Angeles in 2023.

Event director Simon Mayle said: “I always wanted to build an event in the travel industry focused on the LGBT+ community and Proud Experiences has become that show.” 

Mayle added how he believed Proud Experiences had created “a rainbow industry family” which celebrated diversity, equity and inclusion, as well as “providing content from the voices that matter”.

“We are delighted that we will be continuing our journey when we move to Los Angeles in 2023,” he said.
