Abta’s 2022 Travel Convention will take place in Marrakech on October 10-12, marking a return to an overseas conference following the Covid pandemic.
The event was originally due to take place in the Moroccan city in 2020 and will feature two days of business sessions in addition to networking events and the opportunity to experience the latest tourism developments.
Mark Tanzer, Abta chief executive, said: “I’m very pleased that Marrakech will be hosting the 2022 Travel Convention this October and would like to thank the Moroccan National Tourism Office for making this possible.
“As ever, the event will provide a crucial opportunity for the industry to come together to discuss the future of travel and tourism and we’ll be releasing more details about the event content shortly.”
Tanzer added: “It will also be a fantastic opportunity to show travel professionals what this vibrant destination has to offer – from its rich cultural heritage, spectacular scenery, and ornate architecture, to warm hospitality and delicious cuisine.
“Over the last couple of years, a number of new attractions have launched, meaning delegates will get the chance to take a fresh look at this popular destination.”
Registration for the 2022 Convention will open on May 3, and Tanzer said: “I really encourage you to note the dates your diaries and look forward to welcoming you at what is sure to be a fantastic event.”
