IFTM Paris 2026: a major event for tourism professionals

The IFTM Paris trade fair is one of France’s leading tourism events. Every year, it brings together industry professionals with a shared goal: to network, discuss market trends and forge new partnerships.
The 2026 edition of the IFTM Paris trade fair will take place from 15 to 17 September at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles. Over the course of these three days, travel agencies, tour operators, coach operators, tourist destinations, accommodation providers and service providers will come together to showcase their offerings and plan future holidays.
For group tour operators, this event offers a valuable opportunity to identify new partners and plan future tours or stopovers in France. These face-to-face meetings also provide a better understanding of the needs of different types of groups: tourist, school, community or business groups.
A special opportunity to discuss your group projects
The IFTM Paris 2026 trade fair provides the perfect setting for discussing your group holiday plans face-to-face. While there, you’ll have the opportunity to present your plans, ask questions and identify accommodation options that suit your itinerary.
For example, you can speak to our team to: organise a sightseeing tour, arrange a meal stop for coach operators, or plan a group trip.
These discussions often lead to tangible progress in organising a trip. Whether you’re planning a school trip, a club outing, a business trip or a holiday with friends, meeting specialist partners face-to-face makes it easier to get your plans off the ground.
