COMPANY & BRIEF DESCRIPTION: 
 
Officially, the Huntsville/Madison County Convention & Visitors Bureau (CVB) is the destination marketing organization (or DMO) for the Huntsville area, including Huntsville, the city of Madison and all other attractions and offerings throughout Madison County. However, we like to think of ourselves simply as your tour guide to Huntsville.
It is our job to help create and support economic growth by highlighting Huntsville and Madison County's attributes to visitors, meeting planners, business travelers and convention-goers. If you want or need to travel, we want to tell you why you should visit Huntsville! And we offer free services to make that trip, conference, wedding, sporting event, family reunion—or whatever else may bring you our way—the best travel experience it can be.
