The travel industry descends on East London every November, and 2026 is no different. The World Travel Market returns to ExCeL London from 3 to 5 November World Travel Market, transforming the Royal Docks into what is, for three days at least, the beating heart of global tourism. Airlines, hotel groups, tour operators, tourism boards, and travel technology companies all turn up to present their wares to a worldwide audience of buyers, media, and industry decision-makers.

The networking is relentless, the conference programme is packed, and the exhibition floor is vast enough that comfortable shoes are not optional. Over 46,500 visitors are expected, which tells you something about how seriously the industry takes the whole affair. Whether you're there to do business, spot trends, or simply work out where tourism is headed next, WTM London is the place to be.
