A global networking experience designed to connect leading buyers
Puglia Destination Off - New York
Puglia Destination Off is a project created by Metodo to promote Puglia worldwide and to build direct links between its finest Apulian hospitality brands and international buyers.
Following events in Rimini 2024, two edition in London (2024 – 2025), New York 2025, the journey continues with a new USA edition in 2026.
At Puglia Destination Off events, everything takes place outside the stressful atmosphere of trade fairs in an informal, authentic setting where time slows down and genuine relationships are forged. It is within this space that connections grow into trust and evolve into stronger, longer-lasting business opportunities.
Puglia Destination Off is where Puglia tells its authentic story, revealing its true essence and unique ability to provide excellent hospitality.
Each edition marks the beginning of lasting relationships built on shared experiences and a deep passion for this unique land.
