A Symposium - 'a meeting for discussion of a topic, especially one at which the participants form an audience and make presentations' also from the Greek meaning 'a convivial meeting for drinking, music and conversation'.

Not sure about the music part yet... but certainly all of the rest of the above.  The Bowland Symposium will consist of a combination of key note speakers, workshops led by tourism businesses, field trips and plenty of opportunities for networking and sharing ideas. 

Also includes:

• the Europarc Atlantic Isles Charter Parks networking meeting and
• the Forest of Bowland AONB Annual Sustainable Tourism Forum 'Raising the Bar'

Field trips and workshops will feature aspects of best practice developed in the Forest of Bowland over the last six years including - Trampers, walking, cycling, local produce, small-scale renewables, wildlife, charter partner businesses, green tourism business scheme, business clusters, business-led marketing, sense of place and much more.
