World Travel Expo Year 10 Heads to Manila Bay, Bringing Travel Inspiration and Opportunities Amid Challenging Times
PARAÑAQUE CITY, Philippines, November 6, 2026
– As businesses and families continue to navigate economic uncertainties and challenges both locally and around the world, World Travel Expo Year 10 is preparing to bring a little inspiration and new possibilities to travelers as it holds its final stop at Ayala Malls Manila Bay from November 13 to 15, 2026.
The three-day exhibition will bring together travel destinations, hotels, resorts, tourism organizations, and travel-related businesses, allowing visitors to explore travel options, connect with exhibitors, and discover experiences that may inspire their next getaway.
The event comes at a time when the tourism industry, like many other sectors, continues to face challenges. Rising costs and changing spending priorities have affected how people plan their holidays, while tourism businesses work to sustain their operations and support the people whose livelihoods depend on the industry.
Despite these circumstances, World Travel Expo believes that travel remains an important part of people’s lives. A journey does not always have to be an expensive or faraway holiday. It can be a short break, a family getaway, or simply an opportunity to step away from everyday pressures and spend meaningful time with loved ones.
“We understand that these are not easy times for everyone. Many families are being more careful with their spending, and businesses are facing difficult decisions. The tourism industry feels these challenges, too. But we also know how important it is for people to have something positive to look forward to. Sometimes, a change of scenery and time with the people we love can make a difference,” said Miles Caballero, Managing Director of AD ASIA EVENTS GROUP OPC.
She added that World Travel Expo also hopes to provide participating tourism businesses with an opportunity to reconnect with the public, introduce their offerings, and build relationships that can help sustain the industry.
Carrying the theme “Xtraordinary Journeys, Xceptional Memories,” World Travel Expo Year 10 continues its mission of bringing travel opportunities closer to people while creating a platform for tourism businesses to connect with potential customers and partners.
As the final stop of World Travel Expo Year 10, the Manila Bay gathering also recognizes the continued support of exhibitors, sponsors, tourism partners, and the organizing team who have helped make the year’s events possible.
Visitors are invited to explore the exhibition, discover travel options that suit their interests and budgets, and find inspiration for their next journey.
World Travel Expo Year 10 Manila Bay will be held from November 13 to 15, 2026, at Ayala Malls Manila Bay, Parañaque City.
