Travel Salem is the Destination Marketing Organization for Salem, Oregon. We heighten the visitor experience and drive positive economic impact, which supports local businesses, job creation and an enhanced quality of life.
We manage TravelSalem.com, operate the Visitor Center downtown, bring writers to the region for public relations, book conferences and events, develop projects and partnerships that show that Salem is the Most Oregon Part of Oregon, promote the region through social media and content creation, and so much more.
Our region's tourism and hospitality economy is only as strong as our businesses, and we're here to help them thrive.
