ITB Asia returns as in-person event this year
ITB Asia will return to an in-person physical format for the 2021 edition later this year.
Scheduled in Singapore from 27 to 29 October, it will have strict Covid safety protocols.
All attendees are required to download the TraceTogether Mobile App for contact tracing purposes and all international delegates will be provided with dedicated transport at Changi Airport as well as between event locations.
Face masks must be worn and temperature screenings will be conducted at all entrances.
Over 600 international exhibitors have already registered, including the Korea Tourism Organization, Saudi Tourism Authority, Visit Maldives and Malta Tourism Authority.
Representatives of major brands including Traveloka, Melia Hotels International, Trip.com Group and Wyndham Hotels & Resorts will also be in attendance.
“More and more signs of the industry’s return are emerging. After ITB Asia went completely virtual for the first time last year, we are returning to an in-person event,” said Messe Berlin Singapore Managing Director Katrina Leung.
As well as the main trade event, MICE Show Asia and Travel Tech Asia, also organised by Messe Berlin Singapore, take place at the same time.
