The Travel Convention

From 12-14 October 2026, ABTA’s Travel Convention will head to Funchal, Madeira – the first time the island has hosted the UK travel industry’s flagship event.

Madeira is an archipelago in the North Atlantic Ocean with a subtropical climate, rugged mountains, lush forests, and beautiful coastlines. It has much to offer Convention delegates, including a rich history and culture and a wide range of places and activities to enjoy pre- and post-the event.

Our destination hosts – Visit Portugal and Visit Madeira – will showcase the best that Madeira has to offer and we invite you to save the dates in your diary. You can also email the Convention office to register your interest to receive details about any special offers when registrations open.
