ABOUT

The friendly staff at the Florence/Lauderdale Convention & Visitors Bureau will be happy to assist you with itinerary planning and obtaining group rates from our tourism partners.

Here you’ll find the latest information to plan your next group visit to our area including sample itineraries and ideas.

The Shoals area is the only Alabama destination in the newly-formed Americana Music Triangle and we are an important part of the Triangle’s music history. We are also located in Nashville's Big Backyard - 13 communities south of Nashville, TN located in a natural watershed region anchored by 100 miles of the Natchez Trace Parkway.

The Florence/Lauderdale CVB is a proud member of the Alabama Motor Coach Association (AMA), Georgia Motor Coach Association (GMA) and the American Bus Association (ABA). We attend ABA, AMA, IPW (International Pow Wow) and Travel South marketplaces. We hope to see you there to give you more information on what our area has to offer groups!
