The Elgin Area Conventions and Visitors Bureau is working to create a new Trail to explore cultural experiences in the area. We are inviting you to participate in one of our various Food Trails and the new Cultural Experiences Trail! The goal of these trails is to get more customers to your business and increase people exploring the Elgin area. The Cultural Experiences Trail will begin in 2024 and will include incentives for people to visit your business, museum, nature center, arts center, and public library.
Benefits of

What we need
from you
- The Explore Elgin Area is not asking for organizations to pay a feel to participate in the new Cultural Experiences Trail. However, we are requiring participating organizations to help us promote the trail in their organization’s physical location, social media and website.
- Photos of the organization you offer [no watermark/logo]
- Your Business logo [if possible]
- Possibility to access behind-the-scenes for video or photo content
- Coupons or discounts are not required, but will likely increase customer attendance to your business.
What you can do
to help make this a success
- Promote the Cultural Experiences Trail on your social media! We will like and interact with each post by tagging Explore Elgin Area social media.
- Tell others about the Cultural Trail!
- Hand out the Passport cards and share the QR codes that are included in the media kit.
