World Travel Market London, the leading global event for the travel industry, has opened registration to the new-look three-day WTM London 2016, which will take place on November 7 – 9.

“World Travel Market London continues to improve every year, with 2016 poised to be the most successful yet”, World Travel Market London, Senior Director, Simon Press said.

WTM_2016_1Delegates at this year’s exhibition will be able to conduct even more business than last year’s record £2.5 billion and save on the ancillary cost with WTM London being one day shorter. Opening hours have been extended from 10am to 7pm on all three days of the event, to increase the business opportunities available.

“We are really excited by the new-look three-day WTM London. Feedback has been universally positive from all participant groups”, Mr Press added.

The WTM Inspire Theatre, a new 300-seater amphitheater,  will be added to the exhibition floor in the North Hall of ExCeL – London, while the WTM International Press Centre has been moved on to the exhibition floor for the first time (in the South Hall). More than 80 conference seminars will take place throughout the three days covering all the key sectors including aviation, hotels, sports tourism, responsible tourism, blogging, social media and travel technology.
