Vietnam Golf Coast Tees Up a Landmark 2026: Central Vietnam’s Rise as Asia’s Premier Golf Destination

Central Vietnam is poised to make 2026 a landmark year for golf tourism, as the Vietnam Golf Coast (VGC) continues its ascent as Asia’s most desirable golfing destination. With its stunning championship courses, expanding international air links, and world-class hospitality, the region is consolidating its status as the ultimate playground for golfers seeking a blend of challenge and luxury. A Decade of Excellence for Ba Na Hills Golf Club A key driver of this momentum is the Ba Na Hills Golf Club, which celebrates its 10th anniversary in 2026. Managed by IMG and designed by Luke Donald, this award-winning course has been crowned Asia’s Best Golf Course five years in a row by the World Golf Awards. General Manager Simon Mees notes that Central Vietnam’s success is entering “a new phase of maturity and international recognition,” as golf travellers increasingly turn to Da Nang for both championship golf and memorable cultural experiences. Ba Na Hills continues to elevate Vietnam’s international prestige, combining a breathtaking mountain setting with impeccable playing conditions and luxurious amenities — a destination where sophistication meets sport. Montgomerie Links: Boutique Golf at Its Finest Equally vital to the Vietnam Golf Coast’s success story, Montgomerie Links Vietnam heads into 2026 from a position of strength, retaining its crown as the most-played course in the Hue–Da Nang region with 17% of the market share. Designed by legendary golfer Colin Montgomerie, this 18-hole championship course offers a boutique experience that merges intimacy, top-tier service, and authentic Vietnamese hospitality. “Our appeal lies in providing a more personal, home‑away‑from‑home setting,” says Le Vo Hoang Van, Club Manager at Montgomerie Links. Golfers enjoy a sense of exclusivity, enhanced by on‑site accommodation, dining, and practice facilities — all designed to create an immersive and relaxing environment. A Line‑Up of Legends The Vietnam Golf Coast is anchored by a remarkable collection of signature courses created by golfing giants, including Sir Nick Faldo, Greg Norman, and Robert Trent Jones Jr. This concentration of elite design talent cements Central Vietnam as one of the world’s most exciting destinations for serious golfers. Connectivity and Culture Strengthen Vietnam’s Appeal 2026 brings an exceptional calendar of events and improved accessibility. Da Nang International Airport continues to expand routes from Australia, New Zealand, Japan, and India, boosting inbound golf tourism. Visitors can align their golf getaways with major events such as the Da Nang International Fireworks Festival (May–July), the Vietnam–Korea Festival, and the Vietnam–Japan Festival later in the year — all offering vibrant cultural immersion alongside world‑class golf. Australia and New Zealand remain key markets, with ongoing promotional efforts through trade shows like the Asia Golf Tourism Convention (AGTC) in Thailand in March 2026, ensuring the Vietnam Golf Coast remains front of mind for travellers seeking premium, long‑haul golf holidays. Conclusion With its combination of globally acclaimed courses like Ba Na Hills Golf Club and Montgomerie Links, strengthened connectivity, and rich cultural offerings, Central Vietnam is confidently teeing off into 2026 as Asia’s premier golf destination. Whether you’re a seasoned golfer or a leisure traveller seeking luxury, the Vietnam Golf Coast promises an unforgettable experience — where every fairway tells a story and every round feels like a celebration.

Robust growth in GCC outbound tourism drives increased Asian participation at ATM 2026

Arabian Travel Market (ATM) 2026, which takes place at the Dubai World Trade Centre on 4-7 May, is projecting a significant increase in exhibitors from Asia-Pacific countries, underpinned by a strong 13.95% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) in participation from Asian exhibitors over the 2024–2026 period. The burgeoning participation from Asian destinations runs in parallel with the continued strong growth of GCC outbound travel to the Asia-Pacific region. Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, and Japan remain among the most in-demand destinations for Gulf travellers, supported by robust air connectivity and increasingly competitive airfares. Asia-Pacific remains a significant air travel market, with Southeast Asia in particular experiencing significant growth, contributing to a projected 5.9% increase in Middle East air passenger traffic in 2025, according to the Airports Council International (ACI) World’s 2025 global air traffic forecast. This is further compounded by data from the 2025 ATM Travel Trends Report, developed in collaboration with Tourism Economics, an Oxford Economics company, which shows that destinations such as Thailand are set to attract more travellers from the Middle East region as preferences shift and more destination choices open up. “Thailand is the standout performer, as Asia-Pacific takes an even greater share of outbound travel from the Middle East, with over ten million extra tourism nights expected in 2030 compared with current levels, according to our report,” said Danielle Curtis, Exhibition Director ME, Arabian Travel Market. “It is one of the top outbound destinations for the UAE and broader GCC in 2025, with 12% growth year-on-year. Excluding inter-regional travel in the Middle East, Thailand is forecast to capture the second largest volume of outbound leisure nights for the period 2025-2030, with 33%,” she added. Tourism boards from across Asia confirmed for ATM 2026 include the Tourism Authority of Thailand, Hong Kong Tourism Board, Cambodia Tourism Marketing and Promotion Board, Sri Lanka Tourism Promotion Bureau, Korea Tourism Organization, the Ministry of Tourism of the Republic of Indonesia, Brunei Tourism and Visit Maldives Corporation, among many others. Exhibitors already confirmed include Hilton Hotels of Malaysia, Conrad Singapore Orchard, The Garden Hotel Company Ltd. (Guangzhou), Hilton Maldives Amingiri Resort & Spa, ROKU KYOTO, LXR Hotels & Resorts, Six & Six Private Islands, Ayana Hospitality and China Cultural Centre in the UAE, to name a few. A number of factors are driving this upward trend, including increased air connectivity, more affordable travel options, and a growing appetite among GCC travellers for diverse cultural experiences. Asian destinations also benefit from the fact that GCC residents are among the world’s highest-value tourists, spending 11 times the global average when travelling in Asia, according to the research company, Reso. Strengthening economic ties between the Gulf and Asia is further supporting travel flows. Trade between the two regions is projected to reach $802 billion by 2030, according to insights from the global think tank Asia House, which expects the continent to become the Gulf’s largest trading bloc by 2028. To address this topic in more detail, ATM 2026 will feature a panel session on the Global Stage entitled “Asia–GCC Corridor: The Next Great Growth Engine”. Industry experts will examine the broader issue of how and why the GCC’s premium spenders are fuelling one of the world’s most lucrative travel corridors. “ATM supports the wider travel and tourism industry by analysing emerging trends, addressing sector-wide challenges and equipping stakeholders with strategic insights to strengthen existing revenue streams and unlock new ones,” added Curtis. ATM 2026 will also deliver an in-depth exploration of global travel trends, innovations, and growth opportunities through a packed content programme across the Global Stage, Future Stage, and Experience Stage, featuring expert panels, market outlooks, technology showcases, and destination briefings. With the ATM Ultra Luxury Lounge, IBTM @ ATM and the co-located event, ATM Travel Tech, which will have two dedicated halls, ATM 2026 will highlight the industry’s rapid response to shifting traveller expectations and its drive to build deeper connections across the global tourism ecosystem.

AIME 2026 begins in Melbourne as Asia-Pacific MICE industry eyes full recovery

AIME has today opened its 2026 edition, recording record growth in buyers and exhibitors and highlighting strong progress toward its long-term sustainability commitments under the Net Zero Carbon Events initiative. Delivered by Talk2 Media & Events, AIME 2026 is the largest show delivered under Event Director Silke Calder and her team, reinforcing AIME’s position as the leading business events trade show in the Asia Pacific region. An official press conference this morning marked the opening of AIME 2026, featuring Matt Pearce, CEO of Talk2 Media & Events; Julia Swanson, CEO of Melbourne Convention Bureau; and Robin Mack, Managing Director of Tourism Australia. Pearce said the growth of AIME reflected both strong industry confidence and a clear focus on quality outcomes. Biggest show till date “AIME 2026 is the biggest show our team has delivered to date, and the continued growth in buyers, exhibitors and international participation reflects the confidence our industry places in the event,” he said. Pearce also provided an update on AIME’s sustainability commitments, highlighting strong progress toward its long-term emissions reduction targets under the Net Zero Carbon Events initiative. “AIME signed up to the Net Zero Carbon Events initiative several years ago, with a milestone target of reducing the emissions we can directly control by 50 percent by 2030. I’m pleased to share that we are well on the way to achieving that target,” he said. “Our venue emissions, which represent a significant component of what we can directly influence, have been reduced dramatically, largely due to the strong sustainability credentials of the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre.” Pearce said AIME’s focus would now shift beyond measurement and toward collective action, working with industry partners to support shared progress toward a 50 percent reduction in emissions by 2030 and net zero by 2050. Shinning in its 33rd year Melbourne Convention Bureau CEO Julia Swanson added: “AIME is now in its 33rd year and we are thrilled by the continued growth and success of the show. We are proud to be the leading business events trade show in the region and to provide an unparalleled opportunity for buyers and exhibitors to meet and generate business together.” Tourism Australia Managing Director Robin Mack stated: “Events like AIME are so valuable for putting Victoria and Australia’s business events offering on the world stage with planners and decision makers.” “At Tourism Australia we are very passionate about business events and we have a vast program of work to market Australia as a world-class business events destination and convert demand with our partners like Melbourne Convention Bureau.” Exhibitors from 36 countries and territories will be in attendance, with South Africa, the United Arab Emirates and Uganda joining the show floor for the first time, alongside strong representation from Australia, New Zealand, Asia Pacific, Europe, the Americas and the Middle East. 25,000 pre-scheduled meetings Exhibitors represent convention bureaux, convention centres, hotels and resorts, unique venues, event technology providers, production and AV companies, destination management companies, airlines and cruise operators. Across the two-day tradeshow, more than 25,000 pre-scheduled meetings will take place between our vetted buyers and exhibitors. This builds on the strong momentum of recent years, including more than $400 million of business generated following AIME 2025, and further cements AIME’s role as the primary meeting place for the international business events community in Asia Pacific. AIME is owned by Melbourne Convention Bureau (MCB) and managed by Talk2 Media & Events, with the 2026 event marking the fifth AIME delivered by Event Director Silke Calder and her team. Today’s opening day also features Knowledge Monday, AIME’s professional development program, which will welcome more than 1,500 attendees to a full day of learning, insight and discussion. The 2026 Knowledge Monday theme, “Expertise Matters!”, explores the credibility, clarity and strategic influence business events professionals bring to a rapidly changing global landscape. Three keynote speakers will open the program: Dan Haesler, Milo Wilkinson and Kristina Karlsson, and will be followed by 20 breakout sessions across five core content streams. Curated by AIME in collaboration with El Kwang and BEAMexperience, and guided by an industry advisory committee, the Knowledge Program continues to position AIME as the launchpad for learning and leadership in the global events industry. Concluding AIME’s opening day, the highly anticipated Welcome Event will take place this evening (Monday 9 Feb) under the theme Aimagination, bringing together more than 2,000 attendees dressed in white for a night of entertainment, connection and celebration at Evoqué in Melbourne’s CBD.

HBX MarketHub Asia 2026 reveals how the next phase of regional travel growth is taking shape

HBX Group’s MarketHub Asia in Bali shared how the Asia-Pacific (APAC) is entering a decisive new phase of travel growth driven by resilient demand, accelerating technology adoption and rapidly evolving distribution models across the region. Indeed, MarketHub Asia once again served as a platform for in-depth discussion across a broad range of topics shaping the future of travel in the region from market dynamics and distribution to technology, retail, luxury and partner collaboration. Speaking to partners from across the travel ecosystem throughout APAC and the Middle East, HBX Group leaders highlighted that while travel has returned at scale, the real opportunity now lies in execution: helping partners convert demand into sustainable growth through smarter distribution, stronger collaboration and technology-enabled personalisation. The insights shared on stage reflect just part of the conversations taking place throughout the event, as HBX Group and its partners continue to explore how to turn APAC’s growth momentum into sustainable, long-term value across the travel ecosystem. HBX Group chief distribution officer David Amsellem kicked off the event by saying: “Travel demand in APAC is not just back: it’s evolving fast, The challenge for all of us is how we unlock that momentum in a way that protects choice, drives value and allows partners to grow profitably in an increasingly complex market.” This year’s MarketHub theme Unlocked reflects that urgency, as HBX Group emphasised that unlocking the region’s full potential depends on bringing together the right technology, the right partners and the right market conditions, and doing so now, while momentum is firmly in place. APAC momentum backed by data That market perspective was reinforced by insights shared on stage by Oxford Economics head of tourism analysis in APAC Michael Shoory. According to Oxford Economics’ latest projections, global inbound travel volumes are expected to grow by more than 60% by 2035, with Asia-Pacific among the fastest-growing regions worldwide. Shoory highlighted that APAC will continue to gain share of global tourism as rising incomes, improved connectivity and demographic shifts drive demand.  Around 80 percent of the growth in inbound travel to APAC over the next decade will be driven by intra-regional travel, reinforcing the importance of regional connectivity and efficient distribution models. Despite ongoing geopolitical and economic uncertainty, Shoory noted that consumers continue to prioritise travel in their spending decisions, underlining the sector’s resilience and long-term growth potential. Considering the retail, wholesale, and luxury tourism sectors HBX Group leaders also explored how these macro trends are translating into concrete shifts across MEAPAC distribution. Andrew Boocock, wholesale director for MEAPAC at HBX Group, highlighted that the region is actively driving new travel flows globally, supported by continued investment in infrastructure, connectivity and digital capability across markets such as China, India, Indonesia, South Korea and Vietnam. Boocock also pointed to MEAPAC’s long-established last-minute booking behaviour, noting that smarter pricing, rebooking tools and improved post-booking support can help businesses reduce avoidable cancellations, protect margins and improve operational efficiency. From a retail and luxury perspective, MEAPAC retail sales director Stefano Zeni highlighted how technology is reshaping the booking funnel, even for high-touch, complex travel products. Zeni explained that retail distribution is increasingly shifting towards API-led models, while in luxury travel the winning formula lies in blending advanced technology with human expertise.  This shift is reflected in traveller preferences: while 81 percent of travellers say price influences destination choice, more than half say luxury experiences matter when planning a trip, particularly among higher-income travellers and in markets such as China, reinforcing the rise of “accessible luxury.” A paradigm shift is happening As distribution models evolve, HBX Group noted that hotel partnerships are also undergoing a fundamental shift: moving beyond transactional contracting towards more strategic, value-led collaboration. According to HBX Group chief sourcing and commercial services officer Xabier Zabala: “Hotel partnerships are moving well beyond transactional models. As growth normalises and complexity increases, the focus is shifting towards fewer but more strategic relationships built on relevance, trust and scale. The future of B2B hotel contracting will be defined by smarter segmentation, closer collaboration and a broader value proposition that goes far beyond simply selling rooms.” HBX Group also used MarketHub Asia to underline how technology is already operating at scale across its ecosystem. Group chief information officer Daniel Nordholm explained that over the past year the Group has focused on strengthening platform fundamentals, prioritising speed, connectivity and usability to remove friction between demand, supply and conversion. In 2025 alone, HBX Group deployed more than 7,000 product updates, roughly one every 75 minutes, whilst maintaining near-continuous platform availability.  Today, the Group’s technology processes around 8 billion searches per day, supported by advanced security capabilities analysing tens of billions of signals in real time. Nordholm highlighted that AI is now embedded across core business functions, from customer service and pricing optimisation to personalisation and operational efficiency.  Rather than adding complexity, HBX Group’s approach is designed to simplify integration and allow partners to innovate faster whilst retaining ownership of their brand and customer relationships.
