The first 2026 Glamping Business Spotlight will be held Jan. 28 at 11 a.m. Mountain Standard Time, bringing together operators, manufacturers and service providers for a public, industry-wide discussion focused on the evolving glamping and outdoor hospitality sector.
The session matters for glamping professionals. The event is designed to surface perspectives and experiences from across the industry in a single forum. The Glamping Business Spotlight is scheduled as an open-to-the-public virtual session.
“Tune in to hear unique insights, experiences, and perspectives you won’t hear anywhere else. Whether you’re building, operating, or supporting glamping businesses, this is a great opportunity to learn, connect, and be part of the conversation,” the American Glamping Association (AGA) announces in a LinkedIn post.
According to the announcement, the program will feature a diverse lineup of participants representing multiple segments of the global glamping market.
Among the participants is Expo Glamping, described as one of the most important expos in Mexico and Latin America, with a focus on conscious tourism and outdoor hospitality. The inclusion highlights the growing international footprint of glamping.
Also participating is ÖÖD Mirror House, a manufacturer and operator and a winner of the 2025 Manufacturer of the Year Glamping Award.
Lotus Belle Tents Everywhere, an international manufacturer, is also listed, representing the tent manufacturing segment. “Our bell tents are made using some of the heaviest weights of canvas out there. Our motto has always been “tents for life, not for landfill,” and our materials, components, and manufacturing support this,” the company’s website indicates.
From the operations and education side, Elk and Embers is included as an operator and as a speaker affiliated with the Glamping Show USA.
The session will also feature Sarah Stahl, a glamping expert providing marketing services.
Financial and accounting considerations will be addressed through Specialized Accounting, identified as glamping financial experts and long-time preferred partners of AGA.
