Arabian Travel Market (ATM) announced the launch of ATM Travel Tech, a fully co-located event that will debut during ATM 2026, taking place from 4–7 May 2026 at Dubai World Trade Centre. Previously a fast-growing section of the main show, ATM Travel Tech will now span two dedicated halls, highlighting the growing importance of technology in reshaping global travel. Themed ‘Travel 2040: Driving New Frontiers Through Innovation and Technology,” the event will showcase cutting-edge developments in AI, smart mobility, fintech, immersive tech, and sustainability. The new format will feature over 180 exhibitors from 30 countries, including major names like Sabre, Amadeus, Travelport, and HBX Group, alongside hundreds of tech start-ups. A central Tech & Innovation Hub (850 sqm) will house product demos, immersive zones, and the Future Stage, which will host more than 25 sessions and two pitch battles. Danielle Curtis, Exhibition Director ME at ATM, said, “ATM Travel Tech is now a platform for the boldest innovations transforming the future of travel.” This expansion comes as the global travel tech market grows toward a projected $18.6 billion by 2033.
