To promote the research and development of an android robot with hospitality, we organized a dialogue robot competition in which the task is to serve a customer in a travel destination recommendation task. The robot acts as a salesperson at a travel agency and needs to help customers choose their desired tourist destinations. This paper describes the task setting, software distributed for the competition, evaluation procedure, and results of the preliminary and final rounds of the competition.
