Dear Members,
We’re continuing to show visitors everywhere that DC remains a wonderful place to visit right now. In fact, summer is wrapping up spectacularly with Restaurant Week from Aug. 18-24 and DC JazzFest happening Aug. 27-31, and even more reasons to visit in September.
Take full advantage of your membership and upload your deals for the rest of summer and into fall on washington.org. Position your business with enticing offers and discounts to welcome customers on their last (or first) trips of the season. Deals are featured on seasonal landing pages, providing you with great exposure to potential visitors.
Register for the Marketing Outlook Meeting, Destination DC’s (DDC) largest annual member event, on Aug. 26 at Capital Turnaround. You’ll hear about our plans to continue increasing visitation, industry updates and travel forecasts for 2026 – America’s 250 anniversary year we’ve all been waiting for. Ticket proceeds benefit our affiliated nonprofit, the American Experience Foundation.
Kindly,
Elliott L. Ferguson, II
President & CEO
Destination DC
