DETROIT – Visit Detroit and local personal injury attorney Joumana Kayrouz are teaming up to fix travelers' regrettable decisions about their past fall vacation destinations. Those who have suffered a “Bad Trip in Fall” are invited to tell us about your terrible story. The winner of the Bad Trip in Fall?
contest will walk away with an exclusive, all expense-paid vacation to Detroit this fall.
And in the fall, Detroit has it all. The colors. The weather. America's Thanksgiving Parade. Orchards, cider mills, markets and fall festivals. The Detroit Lions, Red Wings, Pistons and Tigers.
The Bad Trip in Fall campaign can be seen on digital billboards throughout the Detroit region, in addition to Battle Creek, Cadillac, Grand Rapids, Lansing, Kalamazoo, Traverse City and Chicago. A commercial featuring Kayrouz will air on Visit Detroit's social channels (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook) and at VisitDetroit.com/TripinFall.
“We're excited to partner with Joumana Kayrouz for this really fun campaign to remind travelers that Detroit is a sure bet for a flawless fall getaway,” said Claude Molinari, President and CEO of Visit Detroit. “We look forward to welcoming the winner of our Bad Trip In Fall contest to the Detroit region, along with many other travelers this fall. Thanks to Joumana for having some fun with us, and for her passionate commitment to our community.
“To be chosen as the face of Detroit is a privilege,” said Kayrouz. “This fall, I invite travelers to feel the energy, creativity, and unstoppable spirit that make Detroit extraordinary. Welcome to the Detroit I love.”
