Reed Travel Exhibitions has announced the postponement of the Arabian Travel Market (ATM) to 28th 1st July 2020, at the Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) in the United Arab Emirates.

The organisers expressed their concern for everyone impacted by the coronavirus and stated that their top priority is the health and safety of everyone involved in ATM; namely the employees, partners, customers and exhibitors. Originally scheduled for April 2020, the decision to post pone the event was made after consulting with their stakeholders, the venue management, supporting associations, and in alignment with the advice from the UAE public health authorities regarding travel to and from impacted countries, they unveiled their decision to postpone the event which was originally scheduled for 19th 22nd April 2020 in Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC).

The organisation also stated that although the UAE is following the strictest medical and hygiene protocols in line with international standards, "the decision was made in the best interest of the industry to enable us to organise an event which provides effective participation and experience for all." 

Moving forward, Reed Travel Exhibitions continues to monitor the developments of the global situation and keep direct and regular contact with all relevant United Arab Emirates and Dubai authorities, whilst complying with the World Health Organisations guidance.

Arabian Travel Market is the leading global event for the Middle East inbound and outbound travel industry for the last 27 years. The annual theme for 2020 has been decided as Events for Tourism Growth. The spotlight will explore the impact events have on tourism growth in the region and will inspire the travel and hospitality industry about the next generation of events, while bringing together senior travel executives to meet and conduct business under one roof over four days.

The annual B2B exhibition showcases over 2,800 products and destinations from around the world to over 28,000 buyers and travel trade visitors across the four days at the DWTC. Over 39,000 travel professionals, government ministers and international press, visit ATM every year to network, negotiate and discover the latest industry opinion and trends at Arabian Travel Market.
