ATLANTA/HOUSTON - Two of America's newest luxury shopping and dining districts located in the heart of Atlanta and Houston, are introducing new tourism programs for domestic and international travelers at World Travel Market in London this November. The Shops Buckhead Atlanta and River Oaks District Houston both offer a curated collection of renowned designer names including Dior, Hermes, Tom Ford  and more, coupled with today's contemporary designer labels such as Ekris, COS, Brunello Cucinelli, and BONOBOS, many of which are located nowhere else in these markets.

GLOBAL ACCESS - Global Access is a complimentary visitor incentive offering for FIT and group markets.  Visitors receive an exclusive invitation from their travel advisor or hotel concierge, which is then redeemed at each center for a Global Access Card.  The Card entitles the visitor to special offers, amenities and experiences offered by participating retailers and restaurants at each district. Luxe experiences include complimentary champagne, hotel package delivery, hotel room fittings, alterations, beauty consultations and personal stylist sessions.

In addition, each project offers complimentary valet parking or car service to and from nearby hotels. Since both projects support local arts and cultural communities, The Shops Buckhead Atlanta also offers Global Access visitors two complimentary admissions to the Michael C. Carlos Museum Emory University, as a gift with purchase, while River Oaks District Houston offers two complimentary admissions to the The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.

GROUP EXPERIENCES - Luxury isn't just for FIT travelers. The Shops Buckhead Atlanta and River Oaks District Houston are proud to offer niche groups and MICE operators a unique menu of options designed to meet the expectations of today's affluent travelers.  Many of the projects' retailers offer private shopping events both before and after traditional opening hours in addition to complimentary personal stylists to make visitors feel like a celebrity. Restaurants also offer group dining options, culinary demonstrations, sushi rolling, wine and spirit tastings and more. Each event is customized to meet individual group needs, with transportation, language assistance, security detail, entertainment and more.
