COMMON QUESTIONS
Travel trade show FAQs
What are the biggest travel trade shows in 2026?
The flagship events are WTM London (November, ExCeL London), ITB Berlin (March, Messe Berlin), Arabian Travel Market (May, Dubai World Trade Centre), INDABA (May, Durban), and ILTM Cannes (December). Together they attract tens of thousands of travel industry professionals annually.
How far in advance should I book hotels for travel trade shows?
For major shows like WTM London and ITB Berlin, hotels near the venue sell out 3–6 months in advance. Prices also increase significantly closer to the date. We recommend booking accommodation at least 8 weeks before the event — earlier for shows in high-demand cities.
What is the typical cost of attending a travel trade show?
Costs vary widely. Registration as a visitor is often free for qualified trade professionals. Exhibiting costs from £2,000–£30,000+ depending on stand size. Factor in return flights (£150–£800 depending on origin and destination), 3–4 nights accommodation (£100–£400/night near major venues), and subsistence. A typical solo trade attendance budget is £500–£1,500 all-in.
Can I attend WTM London or ITB Berlin as a travel agent?
Yes — both WTM London and ITB Berlin are open to all qualified travel trade professionals, including travel agents, tour operators, DMCs, lodge representatives, and media. Registration is typically free or low-cost for verified trade visitors. Buyers programmes at shows like INDABA and Arabian Travel Market can also cover flights and accommodation.
What is the best app for managing trade show meetings?
RepBud is designed specifically for this — log meetings on the go, track follow-ups, and get post-event reports prepared for you from your interaction history. It works for WTM, ITB, Indaba and the major travel trade shows.
