In this episode, Adam sits down with Mike Testa, President and CEO of Visit Sacramento, to explore how a challenger destination can evolve into a national tourism leader. Mike reveals how Sacramento transitioned from a convention-reliant city into a vibrant, multifaceted destination through bold strategic moves—like establishing the first Tourism Improvement District, launching nationally recognized music festivals, and claiming its title as America’s Farm-to-Fork Capital. This episode unpacks how strong leadership, stakeholder engagement, and a refusal to settle for the status quo can reposition a city, elevate community pride, and drive long-term tourism growth.
