Relationship between tourism and hospitality
The word tourist means someone who travels for pleasure The tourism and hospitality industries come together when a person, either local or from overseas, takes a holiday and visits one or more tourist attractions.

Meetings and Events
A significant industry sector is referred to as the MICE industry/sector. MICE stands for Meetings, Incentives, Conventions and Exhibitions industry. This sector provides for professional management and organisation of meetings, conventions and other events such as incentives, exhibitions, expositions, seminars and promotions. Those employed in the MICE industry will have close relationships with many other industries especially travel and tourism, entertainment, and hospitality because their role is commonly to provide a one-stop shop for all MICE requirements.
