ILTM Latin America Sao Paulo

The ILTM Latin America is one of the world’s most influential B2B trade shows for luxury travel, serving as a highly curated platform for engagement between premium travel suppliers and discerning buyers. As a strictly trade-only, invitation-only event, it targets a select audience of high-net-worth travellers, professional travel advisors, luxury tour operators and international brands operating in the premium segment. Its focus is on bespoke travel experiences that go far beyond conventional holidays, offering highly personalised and often once-in-a-lifetime journeys.

The event takes place at the Fundação Bienal de São Paulo in the heart of São Paulo, one of Latin America’s most dynamic cities. Held annually, it benefits from the city’s global standing as Brazil’s economic and cultural hub. It is organised by RX UK Reed Exhibitions Ltd., a leading international exhibition organiser with a strong reputation for delivering high-quality industry events, particularly within the luxury and travel sectors.

In terms of content, ILTM Latin America focuses on the key growth drivers of the luxury travel market. These include exclusive accommodation such as high-end resorts and boutique hotels, exceptional transport solutions ranging from private jets to superyachts, and specialised services tailored to individual travel experiences. At the same time, the event highlights current industry trends, including the growing demand for personalised travel, authentic cultural experiences and holistic wellness offerings. Sustainable luxury is an increasingly important theme, with topics such as responsible tourism, decarbonisation and regenerative travel actively integrated into the programme and discussions.

A defining feature of the event is its strong emphasis on business generation. Pre-scheduled one-to-one meetings between suppliers and buyers enable efficient deal-making at a high level. This is complemented by a diverse supporting programme of expert-led sessions, panel discussions and networking events, providing valuable insights into market trends and fostering long-term partnerships.

Exhibitors represent a broad cross-section of the high-end travel industry, including international hotel groups, destination management companies (DMCs), luxury tour operators, cruise lines, private transport providers and tourism boards. On the visitor side, professional buyers dominate, including travel advisors, specialist luxury travel agencies, concierge services and selected media representatives, all seeking new and distinctive offerings for their discerning clientele.

As part of the global ILTM portfolio—which includes events such as ILTM Cannes and ILTM North America—the Latin American edition serves as a key link between international luxury travel suppliers and the rapidly expanding market in the region. It reinforces Latin America’s position within the global luxury tourism landscape while reflecting its cultural diversity and growing importance as both a source market and a destination.

Finally, ILTM Latin America stands out not only for its exclusive concept but also for its venue. The Fundação Bienal de São Paulo is located within the expansive Ibirapuera Park, one of the city’s most significant urban green spaces, and is easily accessible from both São Paulo–Guarulhos International Airport and the city centre. This setting provides an ideal backdrop for an event that brings together luxury, international reach and tangible business value at the highest level.

The ILTM Latin America will take place on 4 days from Monday, 04. May to Thursday, 07. May 2026 in Sao Paulo.
