Global leader in events and exhibitions, RX, has announced the launch of WTM Spotlight Delhi, a brand-new event showcasing the power, potential and diversity of India’s growing travel market.

Taking place in February 2027, the inaugural edition will unite leading destinations, travel brands, buyers and media for three days of business, inspiration and cultural connection. Attendees will immerse themselves in targeted B2B meetings, explore cutting-edge travel products, and delve into fascinating market insights with an exhilarating conference programme.

Led by globally-renowned thinkers and innovators, sessions will explore everything from sustainable tourism and digital transformation to the evolving Indian traveller. Launching in India’s vibrant capital city, Delhi, the event will also be packed with cultural showcases and networking experiences that reflect the country’s exciting energy and diversity.

Jonathan Heastie, Portfolio Director of Travel at RX, said: “WTM Spotlight Delhi marks an exciting evolution in the WTM brand. India is one of the fastest-growing travel markets in the world - both as a source of global travellers and as an extraordinary destination in its own right. Creating a powerful platform for global and Indian travel professionals to connect, collaborate and capitalise on the country’s immense potential, WTM Spotlight Delhi provides a front-row seat to the next wave of global tourism growth.”

A fresh concept within the WTM portfolio, which also includes World Travel Market London, Arabian Travel Market, and WTM events in Cape Town, Riyadh and São Paulo, WTM Spotlight illuminates key markets shaping the future of the travel and tourism sector.

Driven by a new generation of globally-curious travellers with rising incomes, easy connectivity, and a hunger for premium, personalised experiences, Indian outbound travel is expected to surpass 50 million international trips by 2030, according to UN Tourism. At the same time, India’s inbound sector continues to thrive, attracting over nine million international visitors in 2024 with its unmatched blend of heritage, nature, spirituality and modern innovation.

WTM Spotlight Delhi taps into this momentum - creating invaluable opportunities for regional and international exhibitors and visitors in a marketplace alive with ideas, insights, connection and opportunities. -TradeArabia News Service
