About the event

What is Arabian Travel Market?

Arabian Travel Market has connected travel professionals for more than three decades. Tourism boards, airlines, hotel groups, travel technology firms, tour operators and buyers meet across the halls for four days of meetings, conferences and announcements. The 2026 edition moved to September because of regional disruption, and the 2027 show returns to May. Many destinations bring large national pavilions. Networking is a core part of the event.

ATM 2026 drew more than 55,000 attendees from over 115 countries. Destinations and hotel brands use the show to launch campaigns and sign partnerships, and they compete with large, colourful stands. Strong photography, destination-style video, interviews with executives and quick social posts help exhibitors make the most of their investment.
