Welcome

The Pennsylvania Association of Convention and Visitors Bureaus (PACVB) is the not for profit association for the officially designated tourist promotion agencies (TPAs) and Regional Marketing Partners within Pennsylvania. The PACVB was founded in 1972 and is governed by a 13-member Board of Directors elected annually by the membership. The PACVB association seeks to maximize the professionalism of its members and to communicate to the general public, government officials, and other appropriate audiences, the importance of the travel, tourism and hospitality industry to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's economic wellness. The Association does not interact directly with consumers.
