★ FLAGSHIP CAPABILITY
In-house group travel, run by the team that runs the event. Room blocks, air, ground, and the on-site desk — one operator, one accountable number.

● THE TAKE
Travel agencies sell you a confirmation number. We sell you a movement that's wired into the event itself — the same team owns the block, the ground, the desk, and the activation on the other end. When a flight slips at 11pm, you're not on hold with a 1-800 line. You're texting the person who's already on-site.
// FOUND-YOU MOMENT
✕ Chasing a rooming-list spreadsheet across six inboxes
✕ Eating attrition because nobody watched the cutoff date
✕ On hold with an airline while your group stands at a gate
✕ Coordinating three vendors who each blame the other two
✕ Re-keying the same manifest into four different tools
✕ Booking ground transport that ghosts on arrival day
✕ Reconciling a folio that looks nothing like the quote
✕ Wishing the people running the event also ran the travel
You shouldn't be the travel agent, the logistics lead, and the producer. Hand all three to one team.
Ignite Travel is the group and event travel arm of Ignite Productions. We book and manage the whole movement — hotel room blocks, group air, ground transport, incentive trips, and on-site travel desks — for the events, activations, conferences, and tours we already produce. Most travel agencies hand you a confirmation and vanish. We're standing in the lobby when your group lands.

Ignite Travel is a dedicated group and event travel division of Ignite Productions, the veteran-owned experiential agency behind activations, tours, and field programs for brands like Liquid Death, White Claw, Marc Anthony Brands, and Glendalough. We move people for a living — a 257,000-person field force, crews, talent, and ambassadors across all 50 states — so managing your group's travel is the same operation we run every week.
Why this beats a traditional travel agency: a normal agency books the trip and hands you a confirmation. We own the event on the other end. The same operators managing your room block also dispatch the ground transport, staff the on-site travel desk, and produce the activation, conference, or incentive trip the group is traveling for. One team. One manifest. One accountable number.
We handle hotel room blocks and contracts, group air and individual ticketing, ground transport and on-site fleet, incentive-trip design, conference and trade-show travel blocks, festival and sports group travel, VIP and executive handling, and full budget reconciliation. For large programs we staff a live on-site travel desk so arrivals, transfers, and day-of changes never fall between two vendors.
Programs run domestic and global. Strongest depth in major event and resort markets — Las Vegas, Orlando, Nashville, Austin, Miami, New York, Los Angeles, San Diego, Scottsdale, and most convention and destination-resort cities. International incentive and event travel handled through vetted partner networks.

// faq
How is this different from a normal travel agency? +
A normal travel agency books the trip and disappears. We run the event the group is traveling to. Ignite already produces activations, staffs events, and moves a 257,000-person field force around the country — so we manage travel as one piece of a live event operation, not a detached booking. One team owns the room block, the ground transport, the on-site desk, and the event itself.
What kinds of travel do you manage? +
Hotel room blocks, group air, ground transport, incentive trips, corporate retreats, conference and trade-show travel blocks, festival and concert group travel, sports travel, talent and crew travel for productions, VIP and executive travel, and full destination-event travel programs.
Do you handle hotel room blocks and contracts? +
Yes. We source and negotiate room blocks, manage the contract, attrition and cutoff dates, rooming lists, and reconciliation. We also build a booking link or managed desk so attendees book inside your block without you chasing a spreadsheet.
Can you move a group on short notice? +
Yes. We routinely deploy crews into markets on tight timelines. Standard group programs run smoothest with 4 to 8 weeks of lead time, but we've turned around emergency group travel in days. Rush windows carry premiums.
Do you provide an on-site travel desk? +
Yes. For larger programs we staff a live on-site travel and logistics desk — arrivals, transfers, rebookings, and the inevitable day-of changes — run by the same operators handling the event, so nothing falls between two vendors.
Can you run incentive trips and reward travel? +
Yes. We design and operate incentive trips and reward travel end to end — destination sourcing, room blocks, experiences, ground program, and on-site hosting. The experiential team that builds brand moments builds the trip itinerary too.
Do you book individual travel or only groups? +
Our focus is groups, events, and programs — that's where the in-house operation creates an edge. We handle VIP and executive individual travel as part of a program, but we are not a leisure travel agency for one-off personal trips.
What markets and destinations do you cover? +
All 50 states and most global destinations through vetted partners. Deepest domestic depth in Las Vegas, Orlando, Nashville, Austin, Miami, New York, Los Angeles, San Diego, Scottsdale, and the major convention and resort markets.
