CLIA announces upcoming Cruise360 Australasia and RiverView conferences

The Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) has announced upcoming programs for its major industry conferences. The Cruise360 Australasia event is scheduled for September 17-18 at the International Convention Centre Sydney. The two-day program aims to provide travel advisors with insights into the “desire economy,” polar expeditions, and the growing river cruising sector, while also covering practical applications of AI and content marketing.

Additionally, CLIA has released details for its 15th anniversary RiverView Conference, set for March 5-8, 2027. The event will feature a two-night sailing through Budapest, Bratislava, and Vienna on the Danube. The program includes business sessions in Vienna and ship tours from providers such as Avalon Waterways, TUI River Cruises, Scenic, and Riverside Luxury Cruises. A new ‘Lite’ registration option will also be available for a shorter, Vienna-based schedule.
