Whistler's Inside Scoop Exhibitor Information
The Winter 2026 Inside Scoop Tradeshow will be taking place on Tuesday, December 8 from 2:00 PM - 6:00 PM at the Whistler Conference Centre. Please note that moving forward the Inside Scoop will be an annual event, and there will be no summer Inside Scoop in 2027.

- Reach over 700 Whistler-based employees and resort partners in a single afternoon.
- Build awareness of your offerings among the resort’s frontline teams who engage daily with guests.
- Network with local business owners and tourism professionals to strengthen partnerships and enhance your visibility within Whistler’s business community.
