Gramado (RS) – The Workshop Masterop Travel 2026, promoted by Masterop Operadora Turística from March 22 to 27, brings together key leaders of Brazil’s tourism sector in Gramado, consolidating itself as a space for networking, business opportunities, and the strengthening of partnerships. Under the leadership of Arthur Francisco Filho, Commercial Manager, and Ana Carolina Feitosa, Commercial Director, the event is also marked by moments of recognition and tribute.

One of the highlights of the program was the presentation of the Masterop Southern Partners Trophy, which honored institutions and leaders who contribute to strengthening tourism in the region. During the ceremony, Arthur and Ana presented the Festuris Trophy to the Mayor of Gramado, Nestor Tissot, represented at the event by Acting Mayor Luia Barbacovi.

The most symbolic moment of the ceremony was the presentation of the Enoir Zorzanello Trophy, in memoriam, awarded to Gramado’s Secretary of Tourism, Ricardo Reginatto. The award was presented by Eduardo Zorzanello and Marta Rossi, representatives of Rossi & Zorzanello, and carries special meaning by preserving the legacy of Enoir Zorzanello.

Recognized as one of the great enthusiasts of local tourism, Enoir served as Deputy Mayor of Gramado and was one of the organizers of the traditional Gramado Film Festival, playing a fundamental role in shaping the city’s tourism identity.

“More than a tribute, this moment carries both personal and collective meaning. Seeing my father’s name associated with such recognition reinforces the legacy of someone who dedicated his life to Gramado, tourism, and people,” said Eduardo Zorzanello during the presentation.

The ceremony reinforced Gramado’s role as one of Brazil’s leading tourist destinations and highlighted the importance of collaboration between the public sector, private initiative, and industry organizations for the continuous development of tourism.
