Going all digital!
The industry was extremely willing to meet in person, particularly now, to restart the trade show business and exchange views on the latest travel industry topics. However, that desire has fallen victim to the reality of a situation in constant flux and thus, as a result of the latest COVID-19 developments, we have decided to hold the upcoming We Love Travel! event all-digital. Now that Berlin has lately been classified as a pandemic risk area, the situation has become too unpredictable to proceed We Love Travel! as a hybrid event as originally planned.
Now we're full force on the all-digital event and are excited to share a special deal for ITB news reader:

What's in it for you?
All events will be live-streamed and broadcasted online on welovetravel.berlin. Many of the panel speakers scheduled for the B2B-Friday and the B2C-weekend will still be attending in person at Arena Berlin, while viewers will be able to put in questions to the speakers.
Exhibitors will also be present in an exclusively virtual format.
