Spotlight your destination, business, or service by donating to the On-Site Silent Summit Auction.

During the 2026 Louisiana Travel Summit, the Louisiana Tourism Leadership Academy (LTLA) Class will host a silent auction to raise support for programs that provide students with mentorship opportunities, professional resources, industry exposure, internships, and hands-on experiences that prepare them for careers in tourism and hospitality.

In previous years, the Louisiana Tourism Summit featured a silent auction for all attendees and a separate live auction during an optional event. This year, we are excited to combine the two auctions, giving all Summit attendees access to the full range of auction packages. We hope this change will increase participation and maximize support for the Louisiana Tourism Fund.

We invite industry partners and friends of tourism to contribute auction items, gift certificates, travel experiences, accommodations, dining packages, or other unique donations. Together with the Louisiana Travel Association, our goal is to raise a combined $20,000 to invest in the future of Louisiana tourism.

Thank you for helping us support the next generation of hospitality and tourism leaders in Louisiana!
