Over 300 exhibitors set to take part in Qatar Travel Mart 2024
The much-anticipated Qatar Travel Mart (QTM) 2024 will run from November 25 to 27 at the Doha Exhibition and Convention Center (DECC).
Featuring an expanded 15,000SqM exhibition space, QTM 2024 will feature more exhibitors and networking opportunities than ever before.
Over 300 exhibitors, from 60 participating nations, are expected to attend the event, which is set to bring in at least 12,000 visitors.
The exhibition will showcase seven dedicated sectors — Business, Leisure, Luxury, Medical, Cultural, Sports, and Halal Tourism.
Organizers announced the strategic partners and sponsors who will play a key part in making this year’s edition the largest and most impactful to date.
Visit Qatar was confirmed as the exhibition’s ‘Strategic Partner’ while ‘Katara Hospitality’ is its ‘Founding Partner.’
Visit Morocco is QTM 2024’s ‘Title Sponsor’, reinforcing their commitment to supporting Qatar’s growing tourism sector. Their involvement highlights the importance of collaboration in driving forward Qatar’s ambitious tourism vision for 2030.
“Katara Hospitality is honoured to return as the founding partner of QTM for the third consecutive year, a partnership that underscores our unwavering commitment to shaping the future of luxury hospitality in Qatar and beyond,” Katara said in a statement.
“This event provides an invaluable platform to showcase our vision of excellence, innovation, and cultural heritage, while strengthening Qatar’s position as a premier global destination. We extend our heartfelt thanks to Nextfairs, Visit Qatar, and all key stakeholders for their exceptional collaboration and shared dedication to the growth and success of Qatar’s tourism industry. Together, we’re building a legacy that will inspire future generations and elevate Qatar’s role on the world stage,” the statement added.
Rachid Hamzaoui, MNTO Middle East and India Director said, “Morocco is proud to be the title sponsor of QTM 2024, an opportunity to further strengthen the ties between Morocco and Qatar, particularly with the celebration of the Qatar-Morocco Years of Culture 2024, which highlights the shared cultural values and historical bonds between our two nations.”
QTM 2024’s industry support has been further recognized by its global partners — the World Leisure Organization as ‘Conference Partner’ and World Tourism Association for Culture and Heritage and World Association for Hospitality & Tourism Education & Training as ‘Association Partners.’
These themes align with Qatar’s National Vision 2030 by promoting sustainable development and positioning the country as a premier global destination for both leisure and business travel.
As the fastest-growing tourism destination in the Middle East, the country’s efforts to drive forward the tourism goal to welcome more than six million visitors a year by 2030 have resulted in strides being made. According to the latest World Tourism Barometer by UN Tourism, Qatar is one of the strongest performers in January – July 2024 (147% versus 2019).
There will also be the Global Village, where attendees can immerse themselves in cultural showcases from around the world while experiencing Qatar’s vibrant heritage firsthand.
