  • Press Release Green Light for WTM Africa 2021 Live Hybrid Event in April
    PRESS RELEASE Green light for WTM Africa 2021 live/hybrid event in April First-of-its-kind hybrid event set for WTM Africa from 07-09 April 2021. Plan B will be to run WTM Africa as a fully virtual event on these dates. Cape Town, 17 November 2020 – WTM Africa will go ahead from 07-09 April 2021 in the format of a hybrid event, delivering a significant ROI for exhibitors and providing a much- needed platform for live and virtual connection between tourism industry stakeholders engaged in bringing business to Africa. Carol Weaving, MD Reed Exhibitions Africa, unpacked the decision taken following a robust study amongst exhibitors and buyers which indicated strong support for holding a live event in April 2021. This was followed by a virtual round table discussion with key stakeholders earlier today. “We are delighted to be able to inform our industry partners that we will be going ahead with WTM Africa as a hybrid event, incorporating the best characteristics of a live and virtual showcase of Africa. “Our sentiment survey revealed that 88% of buyers confirmed they wanted to attend WTM Africa in 2021 and within this, a further 96% confirmed they would travel provided the regulations allowed them to do so. I’m pleased to say our king buyers have also confirmed their attendance, so it’s full steam ahead as far we are concerned,” says Weaving. During the virtual discussion, the Reed Exhibitions South Africa team provided two scenarios for WTM Africa, both relevant to a hosting date of 07-09 April 2021.
