The Great American Getaway Co-Op is a grant program under Pennsylvania’s Marketing to Attract Tourists initiative. It funds destination marketing organizations (DMOs) and tourism-related businesses that partner to develop and promote unique travel experiences—outdoor, culinary, historical/cultural, or urban—across the state. The goal is to inspire visitors, especially those within a four-hour drive, to explore Pennsylvania through collaborative marketing campaigns and the development of themed getaway experiences. Projects must involve at least two partners and result in publicly accessible, mobile-friendly content, such as a dedicated webpage and additional marketing assets.
