ATM 2026 Rescheduled to August at Dubai World Trade Centre

RX has moved Arabian Travel Market 2026 from its original dates of 4 to 7 May to 17 to 20 August 2026. The venue is unchanged at Dubai World Trade Centre. Now in its 33rd edition, ATM connects destinations, suppliers, hospitality brands, airlines and technology providers, and draws more than 55,000 travel professionals from 166 countries. The organiser states that the decision prioritises the safety and well-being of customers, partners and colleagues, and that the new timing offers greater confidence and flexibility for the global travel and tourism community to attend. No further explanation of the underlying circumstances is given in the release. RX says its team will support all participants and work with exhibitors, partners and stakeholders to make the transition seamless. Danielle Curtis, Exhibition Director Middle East for Arabian Travel Market, said the safety and well-being of customers, partners and colleagues remains the highest priority. A move of more than three months for an event of this scale carries practical consequences for exhibitors who have booked travel and shipping, and for buyers whose calendars were built around the May slot.
