CLIA has confirmed that bookings for its 2027 RiverView conference will open on September 16 at 11am, with the annual event celebrating its 15th anniversary next March.
Taking place from March 5-8, 2027, RiverView is open to all CLIA member agents and will combine river cruising, ship visits, networking and business sessions across Budapest, Bratislava and Vienna.
Delegates will sail for two nights from Budapest to Vienna via Bratislava aboard one of three ships: AmaSofia, Riviera Radiance or VIVA TWO. Breakfast, dinner and onboard entertainment are included, alongside an overnight stay in Vienna where the conference business sessions will be held.
A new Lite registration option has been introduced for 2027, allowing agents to attend a shorter programme from March 6-8. The package includes business sessions, overnight stays aboard TUI River Cruises and Avalon Waterways ships, lunch on Scenic and the opportunity to visit a number of participating river cruise vessels during a supplier networking afternoon.
Bratislava will feature as a new RiverView port of call, hosting a networking trade fair and a programme of local excursions in the Slovak capital.
Ahead of the conference, CLIA will also launch A Week on the Rivers, a series of destination-focused webinars running from October 12-16, 2026. The 40-minute sessions, open to all CLIA member agents, will cover river cruising in Asia, the Douro, the Nile, Christmas Markets and the Rhine and Danube, with CLIA and cruise line destination experts leading each webinar.
VIVA Cruises will also offer a two-night pre-conference sailing aboard VIVA TWO, with agents able to register their interest when booking RiverView.
