LOVE is the catalyst for doing amazing things that make us feel human – and see the humanity in each other. It connects and reconnects us to the things that are real— ourselves, our relationships, our roots and our world. That raw, human desire to connect with the people and the things we love leads us to Virginia …
And that’s why Virginia is for Lovers.
2021 CAMPAIGN
Research indicates that the top motivators for travel this year are disconnecting and taking a break from everyday life. VTC’s brand strategy will highlight Virginia as a place to disconnect to reconnect on a trip in 2021.
Share What You Love is VTC’s fall flagship campaign, inviting couples and friends to “share what you love with who you love” on a getaway to Virginia. Content will feature classic fall experiences like Outdoor, Fall Foliage/Scenic Drives, Luxury Getaways and Culinary.
The Spring/Summer campaign highlighted family experiences in Virginia, inviting them to disconnect to reconnect on a vacation.
