Tourism Yukon Brand Guidelines

What is the Marketing Toolkit?

To promote Yukon as a tourist destination, Tourism Yukon is building a powerful and consistent brand both in Canada and abroad. A strong, unique and recognizable brand benefits everyone in the Yukon Tourism industry. Tourism Yukon offers the use of our logo and brand identity and call it “partner advertising.” Co-branding marketing efforts will help you to quickly and efficiently communicate the broader attributes of Yukon, enabling you to then zero in on your own product offering.

Simply put, this toolkit provides you with an effective and recognizable framework (the Yukon Tourism Brand), within which you can instill your message.

Working together

The more we all present ourselves in the same manner, with the same personality, the more your individual marketing efforts will be recognized. The more momentum the Yukon brand gathers, the more your ads will have stopping power.

Making it easier for you

Those who live in, or have visited Yukon, understand how its staggering beauty, wide-open spaces and natural phenomena—and the extraordinary experience offered within this landscape—leave a lasting impression. We hope this Yukon Tourism Marketing Toolkit serves as a helpful resource for bringing these attributes to life in your marketing. Journey inside to learn more about how to use everything from our logo to choosing photographs and planning an ad campaign.

We’re here to help

As more brand communications tools are created, they will be added to the toolkit to create a comprehensive set of resources. If you have questions regarding the use of these standards, need interpretation for a specific design situation, or would like to discuss a new marketing initiative, please contact Denny Kobayashi at the Department of Tourism and Culture – Tourism Branch (Tourism Yukon):
