Industry Relevance 

Arabian Travel Market has a long history behind its back, which has contributed to its success. The inaugural edition was held back in 1994. In the nearly three decades, the trade show has managed to extend its influence to major regions all over the world, thus turning it into the best possible platform to network with buyers from as many countries as possible. 

You also get to do this at the highest level possible. You also know that you’re betting on the safest option, because Arabian Travel Market is a brand that’s backed by the Government of Dubai and the Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing. The show’s portfolio includes all kinds of travel such as bus and airline travel and all types of travel offers – cruises, language trips, cultural tourism, spa trips and resort vacations. 

Who Are You Going to Meet? 

Arabian Travel Market usually sees two flows of exhibitors and visitors in general. There are those local to the Middle East, who wish to showcase their products and services on a platform that gives them access to regions outside – Africa, North & South America, Asia, Australia, and Europe in its entirety. The opposite is also true. Companies and buyers from the outside are looking to build their networks with the inclusion of the luxurious travel destination in the Middle East. All in all, there is representation from over 150 countries. 

As an exhibitor, you’re guaranteed great business through ATM’s Buyers’ Club, which has grown to 6,665 members – all senior travel industry decision makers. We’re talking tour operators and agents, wholesalers and private travel arrangers. An additional networking event is the Influencer Speed Networking, which is one of the best ways to get the word about your brand and service out to the world. You’ll be able to meet with bloggers and influencers, who are able and willing to do collaborations. 

Additional Value of Attending 

Don’t have the opportunity to travel in person to Arabian Travel Market? You don’t have to worry since the travel show has embraced the hybrid format. For two consecutive years, ATM has run a successful digital show. After the in-person edition, which lasts for four days, there’s also a digital edition scheduled a week later that runs for a total of two days. Faraway exhibitors and visitors still have a chance to network, get to know the latest in accommodation and hospitality, and close deals. 

One of the most exciting features of ATM is the inclusion of the new sub-event ATM Travel Tech – an exhibition dedicated solely to travel technology. The exhibition has its own stage, which lines up exciting speakers and influencers in a series of live sessions that dive deep into how technology impacts the travel industry. The seminar programme features interviews, presentations, and panel sessions held by hotel chains, OTAs, infrastructure partners and technology providers. All the information provided is hot, new and extremely relevant to your organisation. 

In between all the networking, there’s exciting programming taking place every single day as part of the ATM Conference. You’ll hear from top expert speakers across all relevant sectors across the ATM Global Stage and ATM Travel Tech Stage. Lectures and presentations touch upon topics such as how experience will determine the future of travel, trends in responsible travel and travel technology. A major highlight is the ITIC-ATM Ministerial Roundtable, which features guests like the Minister of Tourism and Antiquities of Jordan, the Minister of State for Entrepreneurship and SMEs, the Minister of Environment, Natural Resources Conservation and Tourism of Botswana.
