Join us at the Press Club Brussels Europe for a presentation of the Global Tourism Forum Annual Meeting 2026, taking place on 9–10 November at the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium in Brussels.

Organised by the World Tourism Forum Institute, the Annual Meeting will bring together more than 2,000 participants and over 120 speakers across two days, including political leaders, tourism executives, investors and representatives of international organisations, to discuss the future of the sector, with a particular focus on tourism investment, security and resilience. 

This preview session will introduce the Forum’s objectives and present its 15 sessions, exploring how tourism destinations can attract investment, strengthen connectivity and build confidence among travellers and businesses.

The November programme will address public-private partnerships, hospitality investment, development finance and climate-resilient infrastructure, alongside cybersecurity, seamless borders, transport security and crisis preparedness.
