Calabria and its city of Gerace “the region’s flagship” were at the ITB in Berlin.
"Gerace will become more accessible, and smarter over the next few years,- says Domenico Romeo, head of public works and heritage for the municipality of Gerace. – We have received funding of some €20 million to boost both Gerace and the entire Locri area as a tourist and cultural destination.”

Both Gerace and the Locri area are a focus of the efforts being made by the Calabria region to renew and boost its presence on the tourism and cultural scene.
"The project is very important. Gerace is at the centre of a tourism project that also reaches out to our agro-alimentary culture,- says Calabria’s tourism promotion director Cosimo Carmelo Caridi. – This it also means boosting our crafts and awareness of the territory. It will open up the Grecanica area, and also envisages an association between the city's commercial and craft operators.”
