Middle East Tourism in the Post-COVID World: Tune in to Arabian Travel Market’s First Virtual Event

This one is for all the tourism entrepreneurs, travel bloggers, and the casual wanderlust-stricken longing for a return to a ‘normal’ travel schedule. Arabian Travel Market, the Dubai-based global event for inbound and outbound Middle East tourism, now in its 27th year, is holding its 2020 edition June 1st-3rd, completely digital.

You can still register for the first virtual edition of the massive B2B exhibition, which will include over 12,000 participants from 148 countries. The event will aim to answer the gnawing question: what will tourism and travel look like in the post-COVID world? 

Highlights of the 3-day event are set to include an inside look at how industry leaders like Emirates Airlines are adapting, a prognosis of the situation for the Middle East hotel and tour operating landscape, and a panel of travel and lifestyle influencers who will discuss travel content creation, as well as the debut of the Travel Forward Virtual event--a showcase of innovations in travel technology.

“With up to four live high-level sessions each day, industry experts will address a range of topics including a road map to recovery, tourism strategies for the future, the hotel landscape in a post-COVID-19 world, and the resilience of the travel industry, as well as exploring the ‘new normal’ that lies ahead, emerging travel technology and sustainability trends,” says Danielle Curtis, Exhibition Director ME, Arabian Travel Market.

The event will also include independently moderated roundtables and one-on-one meetings. You can register here.
