ATM rescheduled for August: Visit Maldives ensures seamless transition for all co-exhibitors

Visit Maldives Corporation (VMC) wishes to inform all industry partners and stakeholders that the 2026 edition of Arabian Travel Market (ATM) has been officially postponed. Originally set for May, the event will now take place from August 17–20, 2026, at the Dubai World Trade Centre.

Visit Maldives is pleased to announce that it will be working directly with the event organizers, RX, to manage all logistical adjustments. Visit Maldives ensures that all co-exhibitors will not face any disruptions during this transition. All registered partners can remain confident that their participation, stand allocations, and branding presence will carry over seamlessly to the new August dates.

The decision to reschedule the 33rd edition of ATM was made by organizers to prioritize the safety and well-being of customers, partners, and colleagues. By moving the event to August, RX aims to provide the global travel and tourism community with greater confidence and flexibility to attend this vital industry gathering.

Danielle Curtis, Exhibition Director ME, Arabian Travel Market, commented, "Arabian Travel Market has long served as a vital platform for bringing the global travel and tourism community together... The decision to reschedule ATM 2026 to August reflects our commitment to ensuring that everyone can participate at this important industry gathering."

As a key global platform connecting destinations, airlines, and technology providers, ATM remains a cornerstone of the Maldives’ marketing strategy. Visit Maldives views the new August dates as a strategic window to engage with the Middle Eastern market and international partners just ahead of the peak winter season.

The Visit Maldives team remains fully committed to supporting all participants throughout this transition and will provide regular updates to ensure a successful and productive showcase in Dubai later this year.
