The Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA) is delighted to announce that PATA Travel Mart 2027 is going to be organised in Macao, China, from September 20–22, 2027. The event will be hosted by the Macao Government Tourism Office (MGTO), one of the Association’s longest-standing collaborators.
“For the first time in a decade, the Association’s flagship Travel Mart will be organised in Macao, China,” said PATA CEO Noor Ahmad Hamid. “We had the opportunity to experience the destination’s world-class hospitality in 2010 and 2017 during the first and second PATA Travel Marts held in Macao, and most recently in 2024 during the PATA Annual Summit. Furthermore, MGTO has also been a longstanding supporter of the PATA Gold Awards for more than 30 years. With this strong partnership and Macao’s exceptional capabilities as a host destination, we are confident that this Travel Mart will further showcase the city’s excellence and hospitality on the global stage.”
He added, “We look forward to jointly working with MGTO in preparation for the travel mart, as well as bringing our global network of leading exhibitors and buyers to the destination next year.”
MGTO Director Maria Helena de Senna Fernandes said, “We are looking forward to welcoming PATA Travel Mart delegates once again next year for a firsthand update on the dynamic developments of Macao as a world centre of tourism and leisure, with an emphasis on diversification. PATA has always been an important platform for Macao’s tourism industry to connect with peers in the Asia Pacific and beyond. By hosting this PATA flagship event, we are also pleased to offer delegates the opportunity to fully leverage our city’s unique advantages in connecting the Chinese mainland with the world.”
PATA Travel Mart is one of Asia Pacific’s longest-standing international travel trade exhibitions. Structured as a three-day event, PTM 2027 will feature networking and contracting opportunities to help travel and tourism organisations gain access to influential decision-makers across the Asia Pacific. Buyers and exhibitors will expand their professional network and strengthen existing business partnerships to reinforce their foundation and ensure robust growth.
Alongside the main travel trade show, PTM 2027 will offer delegates access to a full-day insight forum on the latest tourism trends, the PATA Gold Awards 2027 celebration, and additional social functions across the three-day programme.
