Irish Travel Trade Shows 2025

#Traveltradetogether

Jacinta and Peter from Travelbiz attended the highly successful ITAA Trade Show held in Dublin’s Intercontinental Hotel on Wednesday April 2nd.

Following the extremely popular election of Tom Randles (MD of Barters Travelnet Cork) as the new ITAA President, taking over from 2024’s Angela Walshe, it seems like Cork is the new capital!

The AGM saw a new committee elected and new members eager and enthusiastic to promote partnerships to boost trade.

The Roadshow, brilliantly organised by Maria & Shane Hourican of BizEx, saw a packed hall with great attendance from suppliers, agents and operators. Everyone was in fine form and reported sales and enquiries at positive levels. In partnership with Dublin airport, the networking event was definitely deemed a success. Irish Travel Agents work tirelessly to maintain their business and their hard work is evidenced by their relationships with complementary suppliers. It’s a symbiotic thing!
