Showcase Antigua Barbuda 2024 

The Antigua & Barbuda Hotels and Tourism Association in collaboration with the Antigua & Barbuda Tourism Authority will present “Showcase Antigua Barbuda 2024” – June 24th – 26th. This event provides one full day of pre-scheduled appointment sessions and activities where Wholesalers and Tour Operators from around the world can meet and conduct business with regional Suppliers in the tourism industry.

How does Showcase Antigua Barbuda work?  – Each year, Showcase Antigua Barbuda has grown, and with growth come changes and challenges.  To ensure that participants can have a wonderful experience and ease of comfort from registration to the day of the event, we have made the following changes:

Buyers registration is FREE.  If there is one or more buyers representing a company, and will be meeting as a group with Suppliers, a primary person should register to receive the appointment schedule, while the other individuals send their names for accreditation purposes and to be counted in the attendance numbers to: abhta@antiguahotels.org

Since appointments are only scheduled through buyer requests and perfect matches, suppliers are encouraged to make advance contact with buyers they are interested in meeting. Appointments are arranged in advance through computer matching of pre-scheduled appointments requests received from buyers and suppliers. Appointments may also be scheduled on-site during the “Scheduling Sessions”.

HOW TO REGISTER

Participation in Showcase Antigua Barbuda is by invitation only. Buyers and Suppliers should complete the online registration and send the appropriate fee where applicable to the Antigua and Barbuda Hotels and Tourism Association, located at Island House, Newgate Street, St John’s, Telephone: 1-268.462.0374.
