International Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame Teams with Discover Albany


 

8/6/2022 - Albany, New York - The International Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame is excited to announce our partnership with the team at Discover Albany!


Discover Albany has lead the charge in New York State Capital Region Tourism since 1976. They are passionate discoverers, and are eager to help you learn about all the wonderful things going on in Albany County. The Discover Albany staff has been assisting visitors and meeting specialists for more than 30 years, acting as a community concierge to attract tourists and assure successful meetings, conventions, and events held in Albany.



The staff at Discover Albany works with its Board of Directors, members, volunteers, and other hospitality organizations to contribute to the ever-expanding hospitality industry in the Capital Region and beyond. Discover Albany also operates the Discover Albany Visitors Center, which is located at historic Quackenbush Square (corner of Clinton Avenue and Broadway in downtown Albany) and the Information Desk at the Albany International Airport.

By collaborating with Discover Albany, the Hall of Fame gains a vital resource to inform visitors to the Capital Region about the museum and other various IPWHF events throughout the year.
