The event which takes place from 21-23 October in Singapore, also incorporates MICE Show Asia and the inaugural Travel Tech Asia.
Organisers Messe Berlin (Singapore) said concerns over global travel restrictions and safe distancing led to the decision.
The virtual event will be hosted on a newly developed platform, the ITB Community, which is set to launch on 12 August.
