It's that time of year again! If you're an avid traveler, you know that there are few events as helpful—or as exciting—as the annual Travel and Adventure Shows.
And this year promises to be a lollapalooza thanks to a packed line up of experts coming to the Los Angeles Convention Center in L.A. on February 22 and 23.
Peter Greenberg, the Travel Editor of CBS News, will be sharing his insights, as will Discovery Channel host Josh Gates (of Expedition Unknown). YouTube sensation Angel Castellanos will also be speaking.
All this will be in addition to dance and music performances on the Cultural Stage, and thousands of location experts at booths, giving insider advice on Costa Rica, Barbados, Cyprus, African safaris, major cruise lines, and expedition cruises, Croatia, Tokyo and much more.

Of course, I'm telling you about all this because I want you to hear my new speech, which will celebrate the legacy of my father Arthur Frommer, reveal the latest tips on where to go in 2025, and explain how to travel more cost effectively in today's travel world.
I will be speaking on Saturday at 3:15pm and Sunday at 1pm on the large Travel Stage.
But if you'd like to discuss your next vacation with me personally, or if you want me to sign one of our Frommer's books for you, visit the show's bookstore booth for meet-and-greets throughout both days. I will be making myself available there on both days, all weekend.
And here's another secret: You don't have to pay to get in.
General admission tickets are normally $19.09 for one day and $28.08 for both days. But for free entry, go to the Travel and Adventure Show website and use the code FrommersVIP. This code only works for freebies on advance tickets booked Friday or before, and it won't work for same-day tickets or at the door.
Hope to see you at the show or at the book event, Southern California!
