Travel Ashland's purpose is to promote and deliver a modern mountain community that provides year round access for travelers to pursue their passions.  From accessibility to nature and homegrown hospitality, the spectrum of events and amenities provide something for everyone.

We showcase the mild four seasons, natural beauty and quality of life both visitors and locals enjoy. Ashland welcomes over 350,000 visitors annually to a town with a population of over 20,000.

With over 100 restaurants, access to over 250 wineries, world-renowned art galleries, 365 days of theatre and world-class recreation, the Ashland experience is unmatched.  Ashland is home to Lithia Park, the oldest park in Southern Oregon, Southern Oregon University as well as the Oregon Shakespeare Festival that began in 1935.

Travel Ashland is Ashland’s Destination Marketing Organization and works in alignment with Travel Southern Oregon and Travel Oregon to promote tourism on the local, regional and statewide levels.

Travel Ashland inspires visitors to travel to Ashland and strives to build a steady visitor volume throughout the year. Travel Ashland promotes a travel experience that creates lasting memories, encourages repeat visitation, enriches lives and converts visitors into lifelong Ashland ambassadors and potential residents through servicing individuals, industry partners, groups, tours, and conference attendees. We accomplish this through our scope of work that encompasses promotion, outreach and exposure, partnerships, tools and fulfillment.
