About the
Greater Wildwoods Tourism
Improvement and Development Authority
The Greater Wildwoods Tourism Improvement and Development Authority
(GWTIDA), was formed in July 1993 to consolidate the tourism economy
of the three creating municipalities. The umbrella organization of the
Borough of Wildwood Crest, the City of Wildwood, and the City of North
Wildwood, GWTIDA advertises and promotes the island as a family vacation
destination.
GWTIDA serves as the operations and marketing arm of the New Jersey
Sports and Exposition Authority (NJSEA), the owner of the Wildwoods Convention
Center.
Along with operating the Wildwoods Convention Center, GWTIDA also acts
as the island’s destination management organization overseeing
the integrated process of product development, research and planning,
marketing, advertising, promotions, and public relations.
Additionally, GWTIDA funds and assists special events within the island
to enhance the visitor experience and extend the tourist season. The Thunder
On The Sand Race Series, Family Nights On The Boardwalk, Fireworks, Pirates
Weekend, Classic Car Shows, International Kite Festival, Irish and Italian
Festivals and the National Marbles Tournament are just a few of the over
160 events we host each year.
