Entries for all 12 categories – from Most Compelling National Tourism Board Story to Most Compelling Foodie Story – are currently open, for campaigns executed in the period 1 January 2018 to 31 December 2019, eligible for the 2020 WTM Africa Travel & Tourism Awards.

This year, we are thrilled to introduce EQUAL Africa to our show floor. EQUAL Africa stands for EQUAL Love, Rights, Experiences & Opportunities. This new Pink Travel event will be a bolt-on full day conference on 06 April 2020. Attendees can also look forward to other trending topics and content shares by over 150 speakers from around the globe in six different theatres on the show floor. Our WTM Africa Festivals will once again return allowing visitors from around the globe to experience the cultures, cuisine and customs of some of our 780+ exhibitors.
Megan Oberholzer, Portfolio Director: Travel, Tourism & Sports Portfolio for Reed Exhibitions South Africa says that WTM Africa continues to track the latest trends and topics which affect the international travel & tourism industry. “WTM Africa also has a history of being a breeding ground for ideas which have a tremendous positive impact on the international industry – and we’ll continue to find ways to provide the best possible platforms for the debates and experiences that drive the future of the industry,” she says.
