Skål International proudly invites Skålleagues from across the globe to attend the 84th Skål International World Congress, set in the breathtaking city of Cusco, Peru, from September 25 to 30, 2025. This landmark gathering promises to be a powerful celebration of unity, collaboration, and the enduring spirit of friendship that defines our global tourism community.
Cusco, the former capital of the Inca Empire, will provide a dramatic and culturally rich setting for this year’s congress — combining history, hospitality, and opportunity in equal measure.
This is more than a congress — it is a pivotal moment in shaping the future of our organization. The Annual General Assembly will take place in Cusco, and with it, a vital election for our new President-elect, Vice President, and the next generation of Skål’s global leaders. Now more than ever, your participation matters. Your voice, your vote, and your presence will help define the path ahead for Skål.
