Columbus is a city built on bold ideas and fueled by relentless optimism. As a community, we tend to dream big. We let nothing stop us from turning today's dreams into better tomorrows. Right now, in the midst of this global crisis, when life seems to be put on hold, it's more important than ever to look forward. By spreading hope and happiness, we can outlast the spread of COVID-19. As friends, neighbors, and family, let's live to love. Live to give back. And show the world all that's possible when you #LIVEFORWARDCBUS.

In conjunction with the 37^th annual National Travel and Tourism Week, this year celebrating the Spirit of Travel and the industry’s resilience in the face of this unprecedented public health crisis, Experience Columbus is proud to have introduced Live Forward. Now more than ever, the travel and tourism community must come together, support each other and remind our country that even through the most difficult times, the Spirit of Travel cannot be broken.
