Rimini, 10 October 2025 – Attendance once again on the rise (+3% compared to 2024) for the 62^nd edition of TTG Travel Experience, running parallel with InOut | The Hospitality Community, curated by Italian Exhibition Group (IEG) and concluding today at Rimini Expo Centre. This growth follows a significant and steady trend over the past three years, marked by an increase in overall attendance, visitor quality, and exhibitor satisfaction. This result underscores an industry in full swing and confirms the event's strategic role as an international hub for tourism and hospitality.

For three days, Rimini became the capital of the tourism business, featuring 2,700 exhibiting brands, 1,000 buyers from 75 countries, 60 startups, 400 speakers from institutions, companies, and academia, and 700 accredited journalists.

A dynamic, engaging, and increasingly global edition, which has also seen a significant increase in business opportunities: over 19,500 meetings held on the matching platform, demonstrating the strength of a constantly evolving marketplace.

AWAKE TO A NEW ERA: THE REAWAKENING OF GLOBAL TOURISM

The 2025 theme, "Awake to a New Era," guided the event's narrative, inviting reflection on the ongoing changes. Over 200 events across 7 themed arenas explored the new frontiers of tourism and hospitality, ranging from artificial intelligence to training, and from sustainability to hospitality design. The search for "new rules" in tourism permeated every panel, serving as an invitation to develop transversal skills, integrate ethics with technology, and build business models that anticipate the future. TTG has reaffirmed its international appeal with buyers from 75 countries, including the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, India, China, and South America.

The Italian regions showcased the full range of domestic incoming tourism, from villages to trails, from rural landscapes to food and wine tourism. Meanwhile, foreign destinations presented a global panorama of emerging experiential tourism opportunities.

INTRODUCING AURA, THE FUTURE OF HIGH-END TRAVEL

Luxury tourism is one of the fastest-growing segments today: in Italy alone, it is worth over 9 billion euros in direct spending on 5-star and 5-star luxury hotels, accounting for 16.8% of the national hotel revenue (Demoskopika). A sector that extends far beyond art cities, encompassing more authentic and exclusive destinations that attract high-end travellers seeking unique experiences. In this context, TTG remains a benchmark for the entire industry with the Luxury Event by TTG, which hosted over 1,600 business meetings, highlighting Italian expertise in high-end hospitality. A major innovation launched at TTG was Aura, the new event that marks the evolution of the TTG ecosystem and solidifies its leadership as a platform for the entire tourism industry. The event will debut in Florence from October 27 to 29, 2026, as a new international hub dedicated to luxury travel.

THE MINISTER OF TOURISM, DANIELA SANTANCHÈ: "TOURISM IS AN ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL LEVER"

«This year's TTG follows the first WTTC Global Summit hosted in Italy, which confirmed tourism as a strategic lever for growth, employment, and innovation," said Tourism Minister Daniela Santanchè at the event's opening. "This industry, which currently accounts for 13% of the national GDP, will continue to grow significantly over the next ten years». This year, the event's importance was underscored by the strong participation of regional tourism departments, with presence not only through stands but also via numerous conferences, meetings, and discussions focused on strategies to promote the Italian tourism system.

SPACE FOR UNIVERSITIES AND ACADEMIES TO TRAIN THE LEADERS OF FUTURE TOURISM

Universities and tourism academies were key players in this year’s edition, engaging in the Next Start-up Arena to explore youth involvement and career opportunities in tourism. While the industry continues to attract talent, it calls for more structured training and professional development programmes. Promising start-ups and SMEs were also recognised for their innovative contributions.

INOUT: THE FORMAT DEDICATED TO THE HOTELS, BEACHES, AND CAMPSITES

InOut | The Hospitality Community highlighted innovations in hospitality design, services, and furnishings, covering everything from indoor spaces to beach and campsite facilities. Wellness emerged as a central theme in the Poolwide area, measured by the ability to offer comprehensive experiences that integrate self-care, quality nutrition, and psychophysical harmony. From saunas to sensory rituals, and integrating with gastronomic and sports offerings, a vision of wellness tourism emerges that embraces the body, mind, and the local area.

Rimini, 8 October 2025 –A grand inauguration for two major trade shows in an industry sector that symbolises Italy and the hosting region. This morning, TTG Travel Experience and InOut | The Hospitality Community, two tourism and hospitality events curated by Italian Exhibition Group, opened at Rimini Expo Centre (running until October 10). 2,700 exhibiting brands are showcased across 26 halls, with 1,000 buyers from 75 countries attending three days of meetings, business, and insights into global tourism.

Speaking at the opening ceremony were Don Massimo Vacchetti, Director for the Pastoral Care of Sports, Tourism, and Leisure of the Diocese of Bologna, Maurizio Ermeti, President of Italian Exhibition Group, Jamil Sadegholvaad, Mayor of Rimini, Roberta Frisoni, Councillor for Tourism, Commerce, and Sport of the Emilia-Romagna Region, and Daniela Santanchè, Minister of Tourism.

In his opening address, Don Massimo Vacchetti explained how…

Greeting those present, the president of IEG, Maurizio Ermeti, highlighted all the significant developments shaping the world of tourism in recent years: "AWAKE TO A NEW ERA" is the title we have chosen for this edition of TTG. This title is already a powerful wake-up call, an invitation to shake things up and break free from habits and routines. The facts are showing us how tourists and the way we engage in tourism have changed since the Covid period. Today, no one wants to be part of the crowd anymore. When planning a trip, everyone wants a motivating, authentic, and personally engaging experience. Tourism is undergoing a paradigm shift at the macroeconomic, social, and political levels, and a transformation of tourism is taking place. Our mission is to provide appropriate responses. This is the role and responsibility we take on with TTG and INOUT: we will not merely capture trends, we will increasingly serve as a platform for ideas, a hub for projects, and a continuous opportunity for discussion and inspiration. Here at TTG and INOUT, we aim to build the new era of tourism together with the industry's key players”.

Mayor of Rimini, Jamil Sadegholvaad, emphasized the need to look to the future: "I believe that TTG Travel Experience and InOut are more necessary than ever this year." The reason is clearly conveyed by the title of this edition: we are living in a time of profound and often rapid changes, and the travel and holiday industry is not only no exception but is one of the most tangible examples. The summer season that just ended also highlighted the changing times and habits of visitors, a shift that the industry as a whole cannot simply adapt to but must boldly learn to anticipate. Truly embracing a 'new era' of tourism today means addressing crucial issues: from the opportunities and limitations of artificial intelligence to the challenges posed by climate change, and the new dynamics of promotion and communication, as seen in every other industry. In this sense, events like TTG Travel Experience and InOut provide a valuable opportunity for meeting and discussion. It is significant that the city of Rimini is serving as the starting point for this necessary change in strategy”.

Roberta Frisoni, Tourism Councillor of the Emilia-Romagna Region: "Our region is at the forefront of offering exceptional cultural, sporting, and gastronomic experiences, from art cities, historic villages, and castles to the Riviera, the Apennines, golf, wellness, the Motor Valley, and Food Valley. Additionally, cycling routes and active, sustainable holiday experiences are attracting an ever-growing international audience. The TTG Travel Experience is also a point of focus for Emilia-Romagna within the MICE industry. This edition highlights a focus on sports and wellness, an industry in which the region has been investing for years, working alongside destinations and industry professionals who recognise the tourism opportunities that events and sports can provide throughout the year across the local area.”

Daniela Santanché, Minister for Tourism: "This year's edition of the TTG in Rimini follows the first WTTC Global Summit ever held in Italy, which reaffirmed the strategic importance of tourism as an economic and social driver. The investments announced at the end of the summit, totalling 8 billion euros, will fuel growth, employment, innovation, and infrastructure development for an industry that contributes 13% of GDP and jobs. Furthermore, we anticipate that over the next decade, this contribution will continue to grow, reaching 3.7 million jobs, over 280 billion in GDP, and more than 220 billion in tourism spending. Meanwhile, this year Italy has continued to achieve record results in terms of saturation rate and attendance, solidifying its position as a European leader and extending the tourism season. The government will continue to support the industry.
Gianmarco Centinaio, Vice President of the Senate of the Republic, also shared his remarks: "Tourism is at the heart of many changes, and TTG Travel Experience is a privileged vantage point for understanding and getting to know them." Organised tourism operators can find insights here into the future of their profession, the services to implement, and the international markets that can be opened or consolidated in the coming years, both for inbound and outbound travel. It is also a place to reflect on how best to promote and enhance Italy’s vast and diverse heritage, offering visitors authentic and unforgettable experiences. This is a great opportunity for those who want to better understand and invest in one of the most important and representative sectors of the Italian economy.

THE LUXURY EVENT: EXCLUSIVE PREVIEW

Yesterday, for the third year running, the Luxury Event by TTG was held at the Grand Hotel Rimini. The B2B event, which this year brought together 80 exhibitors and 85 top international buyers, served as the setting for a day of tailored, high-profile meetings. Today’s high-end traveller seeks authentic experiences made seamless by technology, and Luxury Event by TTG has become the premier venue for shaping strategies to meet these new expectations. Growing expectations that will be met next year with the launch of a new event dedicated to the world of luxury travel, previewed at the TTG opening ceremony: Aura, in Florence from October 27 to 29, 2026. An exclusive event that will bring together the most qualified international buyers for one-to-one meetings with high-end operators. Three days of B2B workshops, conferences, unique experiences, and high-level networking.

Rimini, 01 October 2025 – 2025 is the year to boost the hotel industry: investments in growth, artificial intelligence, and new skills to redefine the hospitality experience. In this context, TTG Travel Experience and InOut | The Contract Community place hospitality at the forefront, making the hotel industry the central theme of an edition designed to inspire and provide practical tools for professionals.

FOCUS ON HOTEL CHAINS

This year's big news is Hotel Chains, an exhibition dedicated to the leading Italian and international hotel chains. It will offer maximum visibility and allow visitors to discover the brands present.
An itinerary transforming the visit into a true journey through the offerings of the chains, exploring development projects, new hospitality concepts, and evolving business models.

HOTEL TALKS: HOTELS TELL THEIR STORIES

Next to the exhibition area, Hotel Talks become the heart of the hospitality narrative.
The agile format gives each chain 30 minutes on stage to present their vision, development projects, technological innovations, and new guest experience concepts.

The event will take place in Sala Tiglio 2 on October 8 and 9, featuring two days of engaging speeches designed to capture the attention of the professional audience and promote networking among industry professionals.

These are not just presentations, but storytelling and interactive sessions where leading brands share their experiences, success stories, and strategies for the future.

More than 40 hotel groups have already signed up. Among the key participants in the Hotel Talks will be BWH Hotel Italia & Malta, Falkensteiner, Planetaria Hotels, B&B Hotels, Piazza Hotels, Bzar Hotels, Omnia Hotels, a&o Hostel, Belstay Hotels, and CDSHotels.

THE HOSPITALITY CHALLENGE: STRATEGIC VISION AND CONCRETE SOLUTIONS AT THE FAIR

The discussion on the future of hospitality kicks off on October 8 in the Main Arena with one of the most highly anticipated events: "The new era of hospitality: advantages and obstacles. Is AI outpacing the industry players?”: A discussion among the top managers of Planetaria Hotels, Grand Hotel et de Milan, Accor, and Lindbergh Hotels, who will explore how to turn artificial intelligence from a challenge into an opportunity, while staying competitive and in line with the expectations of increasingly digital travelers. The focus on the hotel industry also extends to the event arenas, where talks and round tables are scheduled to

discuss the new era of hospitality, the role of AI for hotels and destinations, and the training of new tourism professionals. The programme continues by outlining two complementary paths for those working in the hotel industry. On one hand, there are sessions dedicated to strategic vision, designed to help operators integrate marketing, communication, and revenue management, reposition their structures, and attract new audiences. On the other hand, there are more practical sessions that delve into digital strategies, offer diversification, and explore tools to enhance profitability and strengthen facility management.

2025 is shaping up to be one of the most positive years for Italian tourism. According to the annual report by SRM-Intesa Sanpaolo study centre "Tourism and Territory - Trends, impacts, and business dynamics”, tourist numbers could exceed 481 million, up 3.3% from 2024. This growth is primarily driven by foreign visitors, who alone could account for over 265 million overnight stays (up 4.3% and 5.1%, respectively).

FOCUS ON ITALY

The provisional ISTAT data for the second quarter of 2025 confirm the positive trend: overnight stays in accommodation facilities increased by 4.7%, while arrivals rose by 1.1% compared to the same period in 2024. Both Italian tourists (+3.0%) and, more significantly, foreign tourists (+5.9%), who account for over 60% of the total visitors, are performing well.

The analysis by destination type shows particularly strong performance for mountain towns (+12%), stable results for seaside locations (+0.7%), with excellent results in the Romagna Riviera, Veneto, and Friuli-Venezia Giulia. Art cities are also growing, with Milan, Florence, and Bologna all exceeding +8%. In contrast, Venice experienced a 6.1% decline.

According to Assoturismo-CST, the summer season concluded with over 215 million overnight stays, marking a slight increase (+0.2%) from 2024. This growth was primarily driven by international visitors (+2.8%), who offset the decline in Italian visitors (-2.5%). Countryside/hill destinations (+5.5%), mountain destinations (+5.2%), and lake destinations (+3.6%) are on the rise, while seaside destinations have seen a decline of -1.2%.

HOTELS, RESTAURANTS, AND ECONOMIC IMPACT

2025 is set to be a year of momentum for the entire tourism industry, with nearly 477 million visitors expected (+2.3% compared to 2024), over 106 billion euros in added value, and a Hotels and Restaurants industry that is growing by 1.6% compared to last year and 25.6% compared to 2019 (SRM – Intesa Sanpaolo, "Tourism & Territory" Report 2025).

The real driver of this expansion is the hotel industry, which is undergoing a transformation: 64% of hotel companies have invested more than 15% of their turnover in the last three years, and nearly one in two plans new investments in the 2025-2027 period, focusing on sustainability, energy efficiency, digitalisation, and service quality.

This evolution is the main theme at TTG Travel Experience 2025, which places a special focus on the new era of hospitality. A conference with young hoteliers, organised in collaboration with Federalberghi, is planned, along with a round table discussion on the hotel industry to explore its challenges and opportunities. There will be Hotel Talks with key players and a contest for industry startups, culminating in a final award ceremony. The Main Arena will also feature gastronomy, with a preview of the Fipe Report and a discussion on new business opportunities for tourist destinations.

SHORT-TERM AND NON-HOTEL RENTALS

After years of steady growth, the summer of 2025 marks a slowdown in short-term rentals. The average occupancy rate of tourist rentals has dropped to 64%, compared to 65% in the previous two seasons and 66.3% in 2022 (Aigab, summer 2025).

According to Aigab, the issue is not just a weaker demand but also a reduced supply: many owners prefer to use their second homes for themselves, especially on weekends, keeping their listings online but reducing actual availability. Active listings have decreased from over 520,000 to around 508,000, marking a 2.3% decline. Puglia is growing but with lower prices, Sardinia remains stable, while declines have been recorded in Liguria and Campania. Travelers are shortening their stays, opting for the low season, or focusing on foreign destinations like Greece and Spain.

CHANGING HABITS

Operators are noticing a shift in travel habits: average stays are getting shorter, there's a growing trend to spread holidays throughout the year, and there's an increased focus on low-season periods, which are becoming prime opportunities to explore less crowded destinations.

2025 TRAVEL TRENDS

The contemporary traveller is increasingly an "Everything Traveller," adept at combining traditional and trendy destinations, alternating between relaxation and fun, and relying more on online communities than on travel advisors. According to the SiteMinder Changing Traveller Report 2025, 69% of Italians are willing to pay more for eco-friendly facilities.

The use of travel agencies is increasing (+1.5%), especially for packages and organised trips. Meanwhile, workations – working while on holiday – have become a well-established phenomenon, with 35% of Italians bringing their laptops even on holiday.

Technology is becoming a travel ally: 67% of tourists have already used artificial intelligence to plan or book their holidays, and for one in four, AI is now a more authoritative source of inspiration than influencers.
However, there are signs of caution: Federalberghi reports a decline in Americans and Germans visiting seaside destinations, offset by the resilience of the domestic market and the excellent performance of mountain destinations.

·       At TTG Travel Experience, 60 startups from Italy and Europe bring new ideas and solutions to the fair, transforming Hall 6 into a vibrant creative hub for the tourism of tomorrow.

·       The TTG Next Startup Call for Solutions is underway: on October 9, the NEXT Arena will host the challenge to determine the startup or SME that will symbolise the new era of tourism.

Rimini, 01 October 2025 — Hall 6 at TTG Travel Experience will transform into a hub of innovation for three days with TTG Next Startup, a district that showcases ideas, creativity, and solutions aimed at reshaping the way we travel and experience destinations.

Following last year's success, TTG Next Startup returns with even stronger numbers: 60 startups (up from 55 in 2024) across over 1,000 m² of exhibition space, solidifying its role as a hub where young Italian and international companies converge. With startups from France, Germany, Spain, and Austria, and thanks to the partnership with Business France, these companies are ready to present technologies, apps, platforms, and business models that are revolutionising the industry.

The beating heart of the area is the Next Start-up Arena, which for three days hosts talks, speeches, round tables, and networking opportunities for startups, investors, and tourism companies.

INNOVATION FREESTYLE JAM AND TTG NEXT AWARD: THE CHALLENGE AMONG TRAVEL INDUSTRY STARTUPS

New to this edition is the Innovation Freestyle Jam, an initiative that, through a call for solutions launched by the Tourism Startup Association with PwC Italy as an Innovation Partner, will provide a platform for the most innovative ideas. Aimed at startups and SMEs, it will select projects that can revolutionise destination management and related industries, including food and wine tourism, weddings, cultural heritage, food and beverage, immersive experiences, and sustainability.

After the bidding and selection phase in September, the four finalists will take the stage at the Next Start-up Arena on October 9 for the highly anticipated event: the Innovation Freestyle Jam. The competition kicks off at 2:15pm with a keynote speech by PwC and the Startup Tourism Association, discussing global tourism trends and the challenges facing the industry. This is followed by the Startup Battle, featuring two rounds of "head-to-head" presentations, each lasting three minutes, where participants present their project and aim to convince a jury of investors and professionals. The two finalist startups will advance to the final phase: a creative challenge where companies must respond in real time to surprise questions on vision, strategy, and the future of tourism. At 2:50 p.m., the jury will vote and announce the winner of the TTG Next 2025 Award, who will receive a free desk at the 2026 edition, a customised mentorship programme from PwC Italy and LifeGate WAY, and access to the Associazione Startup Turismo network to help grow the project and bring it to market.

Rimini, 01 October 2025 – TTG Travel Experience, curated by IEG – Italian Exhibition Group, returns from October 8-10 at Rimini Expo Centre and becomes the laboratory for the tourism of the future. Over 200 events across 7 themed arenas, featuring more than 400 speakers from institutions, businesses, and universities, to explore artificial intelligence, hospitality, catering, sustainability, and training.

·       From October 8 -10, Rimini Expo Centre transforms into Italy's largest marketplace for tourism and hospitality with TTG Travel Experience and InOut | The Hospitality Community: 26 halls, 2,700 exhibiting brands, 1,000 buyers from 75 countries, and three days to spot the next big trends in global tourism.

·       Destinations and major brands in the spotlight: from Italy to global destinations, including nautical tourism and the new Hotel Chains route dedicated to hotel chains.

www.ttgexpo.it | www.inout.it

Rimini, 01 October 2025 –The tourism and hospitality industry gathers in Rimini from October 8-10, TTG Travel Experience and InOut | The Hospitality Community, at two events curated by Italian Exhibition Group that will transform Rimini Expo Centre into the hub of international tourism business. With 2,700 exhibiting brands across 26 halls and 1,000 buyers from 75 countries, TTG and InOut shine a spotlight on the future of tourism: three days to connect, share ideas, and turn them into business.

"Awake to a New Era" is the theme that will guide the 62^nd edition of TTG Travel Experience and InOut | The Hospitality Community. It invites us to recognize the major changes underway—from AI to new global balances—and transform them into concrete strategies for the tourism industry.

On October 8 at 4:30 PM, TTG Travel Experience will unveil the world premiere of Travel & Hospitality Vision +26 by TTG. This report traces the Deep Trends for 2026-2030 and anticipates the challenges the industry will face over the next five years, including new business models, positive-impact tourism, and the increasing integration of artificial intelligence in travel planning.

LUXURY EVENT: EXCLUSIVE PREVIEW

For the third year running, Luxury Event by TTG returns on October 7, set against the backdrop of the Grand Hotel Rimini. The B2B event, which this year brings together 80 exhibitors and 85 top international buyers, will host a day of tailored, high-profile meetings. Today’s luxury traveller seeks authentic experiences made seamless by technology, and Luxury Event by TTG becomes the premier venue for devising strategies to meet these new expectations.

DESTINATIONS, HOTEL CHAINS AND INNOVATIVE COMPANIES: THE HEART OF TTG

The expo centre transforms into a true map of global tourism: from Area Italia, with its seven halls serving as the largest marketplace for incoming tourism, to The World, the "destination hall" where countries from all continents meet the Italian market, and finally the Global Village, the B2B marketplace for tour operators, transportation, and distribution services. Among the special projects not to be missed is Nautical Tourism, an area entirely dedicated to the maritime industry: from charters to cruises, from marinas to coastal reserves, a space that celebrates maritime experiences and those who make them possible. And once again, the African Village returns, showcasing operators and destinations in sub-Saharan Africa. 2025 also marks the debut of Hotel Chains, a multi-location exhibition itinerary highlighting the most prominent national and international hotel chains. Dedicated panels, digital visibility, and exclusive content transform the visit into a journey through the leading hotel brands, offering the opportunity to learn about their development strategies and network in dedicated arenas.

 
There's also room for innovation with TTG Next Startup, the district that this year hosts 60 Italian and European startups. Here, in the TTG Next Start Up Arena, the TTG Next 2025 Award will also be presented to the most innovative projects in the industry.
