Let's be real: Orlandowould kill for thechance to host a SuperBowl. And heck, thatmay one day be areality, thanks to thenew Citrus Bowl underconstruction. But rightnow, that game tends tobe played in NFLstadiums. But who needs a SuperBowl when Orlando cancall it a win with theupcoming "SuperBowl-esque" tourismtrade show like the2015 IPW - also knownas the InternationalPow Wow. This is ashow for the travelmarketplace held by theU.S. Travel Association,and a study byRockport Analyticsfound that the eventhas the potential tobring $891 million ineconomic impact for thecity, reported TravelWeekly. If that isn't impressive,take that the IPW isexpected to have amulti-year impact on itshost city. "The value oflast year's event, heldin Las Vegas, is to bean estimated visitorspend of $1.6 billion ongoods and servicesover the next threeyears," said TravelWeekly. That's because theevent can result intravel-relatedbusinesses generatingnew visitation toOrlando. For example,

a Brazilian travelagency could seal adeal with a local hotelchain that could resultin group travel ratesthat attract moreBrazilian families totravel to Orlando. In comparison, the2014 Super Bowl wasestimated to generate$600 million (a figurethat's reportedlycontested by someexperts) making it notas big as Orlando'supcoming IPW. So themath seems prettyclear - billions arebetter than millions.
