Escape the Conference Hall with Future Festival’s Immersive Trend Safaris

Escape the Conference Hall with Future Festival’s Immersive Trend Safaris

Picture this, you arrive in a new city for a business conference, excited to explore and experience all that the destination has to offer. However, you quickly find out that your jam-packed conference schedule will have you sitting in on lengthy seminars and keynotes from sunup until sundown. Even when you finally get a moment of free time, you find yourself so tired that you wind up hitting the hotel restaurant for a bite before crawling into bed and flying back out on an early-morning flight.

While this scenario may sound frustrating and exhausting, it is one that many business professionals find themselves in while attending conferences across the country. Fortunately, Trend Hunter has found a way to break free from the traditional business conference model and give attendees a chance to actually experience all that a city has to offer. Unlike other conferences, Trend Hunter’s Future Festival features immersive Trend Safaris that take attendees out of the conference hall and directly onto the streets of the city. Specially designed to help attendees learn more about the latest trends while getting their hands a bit dirty in the process, these specially curated Trend Safaris are the ultimate remedy to a repetitious conference schedule.

Trend Hunter’s Trend Safaris are immersive urban excursions that are designed to make the Future Festival experience truly unique and give attendees an opportunity to explore the city of Toronto. The Trend Safaris are peppered throughout the conference schedule to ensure that attendees not only have a chance to get out of the conference hall for a few hours, but also to give them the time and space to learn about the content firsthand from some of the city’s best and brightest.

This year, Future Festival will feature more Trend Safaris than ever before, meaning there are even more opportunities to explore all that Toronto has to offer. This includes returning favorites such as axe-throwing competitions at Bad Axe Throwing Toronto and tantalizing gelato tastings at Death in Venice. There will also be a number of brand-new Trend Safaris to choose from, including lessons on street food culture with Fidel Gastro's and surfing-inspired fitness classes with SURFSET Toronto.

Whether you’re interested in learning about how the rise of plant-based eating is changing foodie culture or about how retailers are revamping their brick-and-mortar locations in an age of online shopping, there is a hands-on Trend Safari that will provide you with the latest insights, while simultaneously giving you a chance to connect with entrepreneurial icons from across the city. 

If you’ve grown tired of conferences that keep you glued to your chair from start to finish, consider joining Trend Hunter for Future Festival 2017 and experiencing our one-of-a-kind Trend Safaris. Book your tickets now and save $400 with our Super Early Bird Pricing discount!
