Visitor registration is now open for the British Tourism and Travel Show 2026, taking place Thursday 19 March, Hall 8, NEC Birmingham.

BTTS is the UK’s biggest event for group travel, showcasing the best of group tourism across the British Isles and beyond. Attendance to visit the event is free.

The CTA will be present on Stand A18, along with more than 200 other exhibitors from across the travel trade, such as hotels, attractions, destinations, and service providers. Over 2,000 visitors are expected to attend.

In 2026, the event has an updated format, concentrated into a packed, single day of activity, designed to optimise the experience for visitors. According to show organiser Diversified Communications, the move follows extensive consultation with exhibitors and visitors, with the new format designed to reflect how the industry works today.

“This is a positive change that benefits everyone,” says Event Manager Lloyd Jones. “Bringing everything into one day – including the free keynote sessions – makes it easier for visitors to get everything they need in a single, focused visit. It’s a more efficient way to meet suppliers, discover new destinations, and catch up on the latest in group travel, without taking extra time out of the week.”
