RX has announced that the 2026 edition of the Arabian Travel Market will take place in August 2026 at the Dubai World Trade Centre.
The company confirmed that the event originally scheduled for May 4 to 7 has been postponed to August 17 to 20, 2026, maintaining the same venue.
This decision to delay the exhibition was made with the safety and comfort of clients, partners, and colleagues in mind, in order to provide greater confidence and flexibility for the global travel and tourism community to attend.
In its 33rd edition, the Arabian Travel Market serves as a premier global platform that connects travel destinations, service providers, commercial hospitality brands, airlines, technology suppliers, and industry professionals from around the world.
Daniel Curtis, the exhibition director for Arabian Travel Market in the Middle East, stated, “The Arabian Travel Market has always been an ideal platform for the global travel and tourism community to converge in Dubai, allowing destinations, suppliers, and industry leaders to connect, collaborate, and shape the future of the sector.”
She added, “Our priority is to ensure the safety and well-being of our clients, partners, and team members. The decision to move the exhibition to August reflects our commitment to enabling everyone to participate with confidence and flexibility in planning their involvement in this important tourism event. We look forward to welcoming the international travel community back to Dubai later this year.”
The RX team remains dedicated to supporting all participants and will work closely with exhibitors, partners, and stakeholders to ensure a smooth transition to the new dates.
