THE OFFICIAL OPENING OF THE AFRICA’S TRAVEL INDABA 2023
Africa’s Travel Indaba is an iconic African leisure trade show, owned by South African Tourism, with the specific objective of creating market access for our vast array of African leisure tourism Products.
Africa’s Travel Indaba is a 3-day trade show preceded by a dedicated Business Opportunity Networking Day (BONDay) which seeks to create a platform for thought-leadership, knowledge sharing and obtaining the latest in global trends and local insights.
The trade show exists to provide the ideal platform for African tourism exhibitors to showcase their offerings to international and local buyers, destination marketing companies and leisure tourism services partners. It is the most formidable platform on the continent for you to meet face-to-face with the most influential buyers in the world, and to gain access to Africa’s excellence and its endless possibilities. These are the business opportunities and quality connections that will shape Africa’s tomorrow.
“It is a pleasure for me to welcome you to the 2023 Africa’s Travel Indaba, and we are especially pleased to be welcoming 160 first-time exhibitors from our very own continent of Africa to this most prestigious travel and tourism exhibition.
These new exhibitors continue to add to the showcase of Africa’s best tourism products and experiences. I hope you will visit as many exhibitions as you can over the next three days, including the KwaZulu-Natal stand.
It is here, at this Africa’s Travel Indaba that we are part of shaping Africa’s tomorrow, through the connections we make over the next three days. I say this, ladies and gentlemen, because tourism is a cornerstone in supporting economic growth and job creation; and this iconic event plays a vital role in growing tourism across the Continent. It is particularly important for us, as it plays a big role in putting South Africa and our province KwaZulu-Natal on the map of Africa and the world.”- Remarked the MEC for Economic Development, Tourism and Environmental Affairs, Mr Siboniso Duma during the opening of the largest travel event.
