Bolstered by the global visibility gained with Matera as the “European Capital of Culture 2019,” Basilicata has established itself as a destination of excellence for Roots Tourism, attracting the children of the expatriate Lucanian community.
The success of the fourth edition of Roots-In, the two-day B2B fair that attracts thousands of industry experts and tour operators, is proof of this. The president of the region, Vito Bardi, reiterates this. “It is a very significant event,” Bardi said exclusively to La Voce di New York. “On the other hand, we have now reached the fourth edition of Roots-In.“ The president then focused on the United States.
