The missions of the Grand Roissy Tourist Office
Welcome, inform, animate and promote: an exciting objective for the Tourist Office of Roissy-en-France, created in 2003.
In 2017, in a context of growth and attractiveness and following the NOTRe law, the Tourist Offices of Roissy-en-France, byÉCOUEN as well as Luzarches have decided to merge. So these territories combine their respective strengths and offer a complete tourist offer. This merger was effective on December 14, 2016, when the merger agreement was signed, and formalized by a Constitutive General Meeting at the end of February 2017, giving rise to the creation of Grand Roissy Tourist Office.
Then, in 2018, the Tourist Office began its transformation with the establishment of a tourism development scheme by the firm In Extenso Deloitte. This outline made it possible to identify several recommendations for the development of the Office until 2020. Such as the priority of providing the Tourist Office with a territorial brand to affirm its singularities and pluralities. This has been done since early 2019, when the Office changed its name and presented its new destination brand. From now on, the Grand Roissy Tourist Office is positioned internationally thanks to its brand: Roissy, Land of Business & Leisure.
Thus, the new Grand Roissy Tourist Office becomes a player in the tourist destination of first row in the territory of Roissy-en-France, Ecouen, Luzarches and the two new towns: Gressy and Le Mesnil-Amelot with the support of the Roissy Pays de France Agglomeration Community.
