In early August 2026, the Meet Up Argentina 2026 conference gathered industry leaders to promote the growing tourism‑meeting (MICE) sector. Delegations from Córdoba and Jujuy highlighted regional momentum, noting sharp visitor increases, new air links, expanded hotel capacity and calls for tax relief, clearer regulation and stronger public‑private cooperation. The event attracted more than 1,800 participants from 13 countries, underscoring Argentina’s ambition to become a regional hub for large‑scale meetings.

Two days later, the Federal Tourism Council’s 177th assembly in Buenos Aires brought together provincial tourism ministers. The council announced the "Tourism Olympics 2026" program in San Luis, linking education with tourism, and confirmed Jujuy as the host of the first 2027 council assembly. Officials emphasized Jujuy’s rapid visitor growth, new flight routes and hotel investments, positioning the province as a showcase for the nation’s tourism transformation and tying the initiative to the upcoming Meet Up Argentina series.
