During January and February, the town of Roudnice nad Labem was presented at major tourism fairs. The stand of the Destination Agency České středohoří presented the town of Roudnice nad Labem and the Podřipsko region with its campaign www.vyletnarip.cz.
From 17 to 20 January 2019, Regiontour - International Fair of Tourist Opportunities in the Regions- took place in Brno. The four-day fair attracted many visitors from among experts and the general public. There was great interest in information materials on cycling and tourist destinations along the Elbe Trail. There were countless inquiries about the possibilities of active activities in the towns of Terezín, Litoměřice, Roudnice nad Labem and the surrounding area. Visitors were again very interested in the memorable Mount Říp. Materials and practical information about the Bohemian Central Highlands and the Podřipsko region were distributed almost continuously. Visitors took away hundreds of promotional leaflets Trip to Říp: Roudnice nad Labem and Podřipsko and Podřipsko for children, as well as cycling maps of Roudnice nad Labem and Podřipsko. There was also a new cycling map of the Elbe Trail and its surroundings, a tourist map of the Bohemian Central Highlands, a leaflet with current events and a leaflet with an offer of Czech wine events. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday, a short knowledge competition was also held at the Brno fair, introducing the destinations of the Bohemian Central Highlands and Podřipsko. The prize was always three regional certified products - Fratava wine from the Lobkowicz Chateau Winery in Roudnice nad Labem, Mazel beer from the Ústí nad Labem Pivovar Hotel Na Rychtě and a fragrance package from the Lavender Farm in Židovice. A new collector's 4-page view of the Month of Towers and Lookout Towers of the Czech Republic 28 September - 28 October was also presented at the fair, featuring the Roudnice tower Hláska, Kratochvíl's lookout tower, Říp Mountain and the Na Horách lookout tower near Rohatců. It will be on sale from May 2019 at the Podřipsko Information and Transport Centre.
