What is ITE HCMC 2026?

ITE HCMC is an international tourism trade expo first held in 2005. Its 2026 edition marks the event’s 20th staging and carries the theme “Vibrant Connections – Global Destinations.” According to the Organising Committee, the theme reflects stronger connections among tourism authorities, businesses and international partners as the industry advances towards digital, green and sustainable development.

The event is directed by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the People’s Committee of Ho Chi Minh City. The official website lists the Vietnam National Authority of Tourism, Ho Chi Minh City Department of Tourism and C.I.S Vietnam Advertising & Exhibition JSC as organisers. The Ho Chi Minh City Tourism Promotion Center and relevant partners are involved in implementation and coordination.

ITE HCMC 2026 serves two principal audiences:

• Trade visitors: tourism authorities, travel agencies, Tour Operators, DMCs, hotels, airlines, transport providers, MICE suppliers, technology companies and media.
• Public visitors: residents and travellers interested in destinations, tourism products, promotions, cultural experiences, OCOP products and local specialities.

Why does ITE HCMC matter to the travel industry?

ITE HCMC combines three important functions: destination promotion, knowledge exchange and business development.

For destinations, the expo provides access to trade buyers, travellers and international media. For tourism companies, its appointment-based B2B programme supports more focused conversations with potential partners. For public visitors, the B2C sessions offer direct access to destinations, travel products and promotional programmes.

The forums on MICE, AI, destination branding, travel technology and sustainable development also help tourism stakeholders understand trends that may influence product planning, distribution and visitor experience.
