Bowling Green, Ohio loves to celebrate! We celebrate with music, art, food and different events all year long. Most of you know that we have numerous events each year such as: Winterfest BG Chillabration, ArtWalk, Classics on Main Car Show, National Tractor Pulling Championships and Black Swamp Arts Festival to name a few of the big ones. But this year the CVB is celebrating National Travel & Tourism Week from May 7th through the 13th. So what better way to celebrate than with an event? On Wednesday May 10th, the CVB is hosting Tacos for Tourism from 4:30p – 7p. 

Come and have a ‘fiesta’ with us and dine on local Mexican finger-food, and learn why Bowling Green is a destination. The community and business of Bowling Green are all welcome to come. Along with this, the event will be featuring displays from organizations that help make Bowling Green a viable destination and make tourism possible. These displays will be set up all week, so don’t be shy and stop on in during business hours!

So mark your calendars and help us celebrate travel and tourism, and maybe learn about what the CVB does for you!
