\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Miami, Fla. \u2013 Nov. 3, 2025 \u2013 <\/strong>The Caribbean Hotel & Tourism Association<\/a> (CHTA) today announced that Antigua and Barbuda will host the 44th<\/sup> edition of Caribbean Travel Marketplace (CTM)<\/a><\/u><\/strong>, taking place May 12\u201315, 2026<\/strong>. This marks a continuation of the successful partnership established during the 2025 event and reaffirms CHTA\u2019s confidence in Antigua and Barbuda\u2019s vision, leadership and commitment to the advancement of Caribbean tourism.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

CTM is the region\u2019s largest tourism forum, connecting regional suppliers with global buyers to drive business, strengthen partnerships, and showcase the innovation and resilience of the region\u2019s visitor economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs we look ahead to Caribbean Travel Marketplace 2026, we are proud to continue our collaboration with Antigua and Barbuda and build on the momentum of this year\u2019s event,\u201d said CHTA President Sanovnik Destang. \u201cMarketplace continues to play a pivotal role in amplifying the Caribbean\u2019s collective voice globally, showcasing our shared strengths, opening doors to new opportunities, and reflecting the resilience and innovation that define our region. Antigua and Barbuda\u2019s commitment to excellence and regional partnership makes it a fitting host destination once again.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Returning to Antigua and Barbuda reflects the destination\u2019s proven capability to deliver world-class conferences. Recently named the \u201cCaribbean\u2019s Best Meetings and Conference Destination\u201d by the World Travel Awards, the dual-island nation has demonstrated this strength by hosting major events including Marketplace 2025, the OAS Conference, and preparations for the upcoming Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting. These accomplishments underscore Antigua and Barbuda\u2019s growing stature in the global meetings and incentives arena and its continued investment in hospitality infrastructure and service excellence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are very proud to once again host the CHTA\u2019s Caribbean Travel Marketplace here in Antigua and Barbuda,\u201d said Colin C. James, CEO of the Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority. \u201cBringing together the Caribbean\u2019s tourism leaders, suppliers and international buyers to conduct business underscores our ongoing commitment to the growth of Caribbean tourism. With our strong infrastructure and modern facilities, we are ready to host Marketplace and also showcase the vibrant culture and warm hospitality that Antigua and Barbuda is known for.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Marketplace 2026 will introduce enhancements, including but not limited to expanded accommodation options and venue optimization. These refinements underscore CHTA\u2019s and Antigua and Barbuda\u2019s shared commitment to delivering an exceptional and seamless experience for delegates and buyers.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Regional and international air connectivity will remain a strategic focus for Marketplace, with continued collaboration among government partners, aviation stakeholders, and tourism officials to maintain and expand affordability and access across the Caribbean and key international gateways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strength in Unity <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In recognizing the strength of regional unity, CHTA extends solidarity to Jamaica as it continues its recovery efforts. The association reaffirms its commitment to all member destinations, underscoring that the Caribbean\u2019s greatest strength lies in its shared purpose and support for one another. As part of this commitment, CHTA has activated its Disaster Response Fund<\/a> to support recovery efforts for destinations impacted by Hurricane Melissa. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMarketplace has always been about bringing the Caribbean together,\u201d said CHTA CEO Vanessa Ledesma. \u201cAs our region continues to navigate growth and recovery, this event remains vital in strengthening our partnerships, supporting business development and advancing tourism across the Caribbean.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Registration details, buyer programs and travel information for Caribbean Travel Marketplace 2026 will be released in the coming months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
