The Philippines’ longest-running travel fair is back! The 35th Philippine Travel Mart will be held from September 6 to 8 at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay, offering incredible travel packages, deals, and discounts for both local and international destinations.
This event is a celebration of the beauty and culture of the Philippines. Over the years, the fair has gained popularity for its grand regional pavilions, showcasing the diverse attractions of Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.
Organized by the Philippine Tour Operators Association (PHILTOA), this year’s travel fair will feature nearly 300 exhibitors, including tour operators, tourism offices, travel agencies, airlines, hotels, and resorts. All are ready to help turn your travel dreams into reality. The theme for the 2024 event is “Love the NextGen Tourism,” highlighting key tourism trends such as sustainability, digitalization, inclusivity, and health and wellness.
Last year, the Philippine Travel Mart drew around 60,000 travelers eager to plan their next adventure. The upcoming three-day event is your chance to book your favorite destinations or discover new, off-the-beaten-path corners of the Philippines.
How much of the Philippines have you explored? Last year’s attendees had the opportunity to book tours to unique destinations, including the Spratly Islands and the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao. This year, exhibitors will also offer exciting packages to international hotspots across Asia, the US, Europe, and Australia.
UnionBank credit cardholders will enjoy exclusive travel perks and privileges, including waived entrance fees and access to UnionBank’s PAYEASY facility, which offers 0% installment payment plans on a variety of travel deals and packages.
The Philippine Travel Mart will run from September 6 to 8, 2024, at the SMX Convention Center Manila, Mall of Asia Complex, Pasay City.
