Ticket-booking for this year’s 44th World Travel Market London (November 5-7) opened this week.
The organisers are enabling visitors to book tickets and access the meeting booking platform well in advance of the show.
This year’s event is set to be the largest ever, with record participation from destinations and private-sector customers.
The conference will be held across three stages, with six content ‘tracks’ (topical conversations) to be announced soon, offering 50 hours of content and more than 170 speakers.
The WTM Ministers’ Summit will be on Wednesday, November 6 – the theme will be announced in the coming weeks.
The Networking Party returns for a second year on Tuesday, November 5, following its successful launch in 2023.
There will also be an expanded programme for influencers and content creators, with details of a networking schedule to be announced soon.
The WTM Global Travel Report will also return following the success of the first one in 2023.
WTM London will open from 09h30, with the first hour dedicated to impromptu meetings. Delegates can take advantage of the Community Hubs in the centre of the north and south halls for networking, relaxing and meetings.
WTM Connect Me – the show’s meeting-booking platform – will be available for exhibitors, buyers, and the global media.
All attendees will also have access to the official WTM App.
Juliette Losardo, Exhibition Director, WTM London, said: “We’ve been working hard since last year’s WTM to build on the successes of 2023 and continually adapt to the rapid changes in our sector.
“We’ve listened to feedback from exhibitors, buyers and other delegates to ensure WTM offers even more inspiration – and more opportunities for networking, learning and doing business.
“Our changes will ensure visitors can maximise the value from attending WTM and head into 2025 armed with new strategies, fresh partnerships and essential business deals.”
