The UK & Ireland area’s move at the World Travel Market exhibition has seen strong interest with the section nearly full, organisers have revealed.
The UK & Ireland region will be located closer to the middle of the North Hall this year between the Global Village and Europe following requests from exhibitors, with its football expected to be higher.
New exhibitors this year include tour operator BAC Sport; commentary system V6e, Star Tours, Chasing Riles – Great Guides, CHR Travel LLP and On the Avenue.
Others have taken larger stands than last year including The View From the Shard which has 60% more space this year.
WTM senior director Simon Press, said: “The UK is an important player on the global tourism stage and WTM is delighted to give UK-based operators the opportunity to showcase their product to a global audience of buyers and we are also backing the domestic travel industry. It is great to see the UK region almost sold out so early in the year. The increased interest in UK & Ireland is a positive indicator for the future of UK tourism and the significance of WTM for this market.”
