This year’s show is back to its fully live, pre-pandemic format, with hundreds of destinations exhibiting and brands from across the globe showcasing their new products to buyers.

Organisers are pulling out all the stops to make WTM London 2022 the most memorable so far, with a packed conference programme across four themed stages: the Future Stage, Sustainability Stage, Technology Stage and the Insights Stage.  Over 70 live sessions have already been confirmed, with more content being added every week.

Visitors will hear from top motivational speakers, celebrities and industry leaders from a variety of sectors during a tailored programme to help inspire, educate and guide – bringing key insights and takeaways that are hard to find anywhere else.

Once again, WTM London will serve as the meeting point for the prestigious WTM, UNWTO & WTTC Ministers Summit.  Responsible Tourism will also be on the agenda, while Travel Tech – the event for cutting-edge technology for travel and hospitality, will attract decision-makers from across the globe.

Networking is back in full force and WTM London is offering plenty of opportunities for meetings, whether that’s specific buyer networking sessions, drinks parties or other opportunities where delegates can enhance their presence, make maximum connections and increase their business network.

Juliette Losardo, Exhibition Director at World Travel Market London, said:

“Buyers are telling us how excited they are about walking through the doors of ExCeL once again, where they can discover what’s new in the world of travel and what’s in store for the coming season.”

“For over 40 years, WTM London has been THE place to meet new and existing business contacts and nurture relationships, and as the industry builds itself back after a challenging time, this platform is more important than ever.”

World Travel Market London

World Travel Market London will be held at ExCeL London, an exhibitions and international convention centre located on the northern quay of the Royal Victoria Dock in London Docklands, between Canary Wharf and London City Airport.

Staged annually in London, World Travel Market London - the leading global event for the travel industry - is a vibrant must attend business-to-business event presenting a diverse range of destinations and industry sectors to UK and International travel professionals. It provides a unique opportunity for the whole global travel trade to meet, network, negotiate and conduct business. Who attends? More than 50,000 senior travel industry professionals, government ministers and international press, visit ExCeL - London every November to network, negotiate and discover the latest industry opinion and trends at WTM London. The event generates more than £2.5 billion of travel industry contracts. For many years, WTM London has organised World Responsible Tourism Day , with the support of the United Nations World Tourism Organization, This is the world's largest industry event focused on efforts to make the industry more responsible and sustainable. Each year leading figures from the industry, along with representatives of civil society and key organisations, gather to discuss the key issues facing the sustainable development of tourism. Many of these issues are directly reflected in the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. Tourism is also mentioned specifically in three of the SDGs: SDG 8 - Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all - states that "By 2030, devise and implement policies to promote sustainable tourism that creates jobs and promotes local culture and products." SDG 12 - Ensure sustainable Consumption and Production patterns - calls for the world to "Develop and implement tools to monitor sustainable development impacts for sustainable tourism which creates jobs, promotes local culture and products."; SDG 14 - Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development - says there is an essential role for tourism, to "by 2030 increase the economic benefits of SIDS and LCDs from the sustainable use of marine resources, including through sustainable management of fisheries, aquaculture and tourism". In addition to these goals, tourism is able to support every other SDG - from action on climate change to improving gender equality and protecting biodiversity – and in 2017, marking the UN International Year for Sustainable Tourism for Development, World Travel Market's responsible tourism programme featured panel sessions dedicated to examining what the industry can do to meet its commitments across a range of the goals. The World Travel Market Portfolio includes responsible tourism seminars at WTM London, Arabian Travel Market, WTM Latin America and WTM Africa. These seminars are part of the Events Programme for each show. WTM London forms part of the Reed Travel Exhibitions WTM Portfolio along with: · World Travel Market Latin America · World Travel Market Africa · Arabian Travel Market · International French Travel Market · World Travel Market Connect Asia · International Golf Travel Market.

Wtm london announces exciting new areas on the exhibition floor.

In Press Releases , WTM London .

World Travel Market London 2023 , the world’s most influential travel & tourism event, will have three exciting new areas on the exhibition floor this year – Accommodation & Wholesalers, Experiences and Transportation.

The new areas will replace the International Hub and predominantly showcase private-sector and non-destination exhibitors.

The Accommodation & Wholesalers, Experiences and Transportation areas have been launched following extensive research carried out by World Travel Market earlier this year, which identified a trend towards travel purchasing decisions based upon experiences, as opposed to purely destination, particularly among younger generations.

WTM’s behavioural research highlighted the changing habits of the traveller, with Millennials and Gen Z increasingly making travel choices based on experience or bucket lists, as opposed to just the city, country, or region they want to visit.

Juliette Losardo , Exhibition Director at World Travel Market London, said:

“While Gen X might go to Spain, New York or Paris, the newer generations want to visit a wellness retreat, go white-water rafting, or learn to cook in a local community. 

“This year we’ve seen an increase in the number of non-destination exhibitors signing up to WTM London, in response to the shift in requirements of younger travellers, who make travel choices based on what they want to do and experience.

“The new Accommodation & Wholesalers, Transportation & Experience areas of the show tap into this cultural shift, offering a place where buyers can come and see what is new and exciting on offer, all in one place.”

In the Accommodation & Wholesalers area, visitors will find dozens of suppliers, including:

Hilton Hotels & Resorts, a global brand of full-service hotels and resorts and the flagship brand of American multinational hospitality company Hilton; Intrepid Travel Group UK , one of the world’s best-known small-group tour organisers, with over 30 years’ experience of providing adventures across the globe; European Tour Operators Association , the trade association for global and European tour operators and suppliers in European destinations; and Miki Travel , which is one of the largest and most experienced wholesale tour operators in Europe.

Visitors to the Experiences area can find exhibitors such as:

Go City (previously known as Leisure Pass Group) – the world’s largest sightseeing pass business, operating in more than 30 destinations, including London, New York, Sydney and Oahu – and Montparnasse 56 , operator of the Montparnasse Tower Panoramic Observation Deck that offers an incredible panoramic view overlooking the Eiffel Tower and other iconic monuments in Paris, are also waiting to be discovered in the Experiences area.

Sporting events providers are also represented in the Experiences area, with exhibitors including XS2Event and Champions Travel Ltd , both offering access to many of the best events around the world.

Also in the Experience area, City Sightseeing , the ‘hop-on hop-off’ tours; Big Bus Tours which allows travellers to discover places on an open-top bus; and experience company City Cruises Ltd .

Last but not least, in the Transportation area, visitors can meet representatives from companies including car-hire operators and transport providers, such as:

European train ticket and rail pass provider Rail Europe ; car-rental giant Enterprise Rent-A-Car ; German car rental supplier Wheego Mobility ; and Global Passenger Network , an organisation of independent coach companies operating in more than 40 countries around the world. 

Also, in the Transportation area will be representatives from the fast-growing river-cruise sector, including 14-ship operator Amadeus River Cruises , Dutch Cruise Line BV – which operates a fleet of nine river ships – and United Rivers AG , provider of tailor-made white label river-cruise operations.

Meanwhile, the subject of experiential travel is widely covered during the WTM London Conference Programme 2023.

The programme includes a session by Lonely Planet Vice President Tom Hall , entitled Captivating Experience-Seekers: Adopting the Next Generation Mindset , on the Innovate Stage on Tuesday 7 November, 10:30 – 11:10.

On Wednesday 8 November, 10:30 – 11:10, Vaishali Patel, Founder and Director, Vaishali Ltd ; Jo Fennell, Head of Sales for Northern Europe, GetYourGuide , and Nishank Gopalkrishnan, Chief Business Officer, TUI Musement , will take part in a panel discussion entitled Curating Unique Customer Experiences Anywhere and Everywhere .
