Participating at the Holiday World Show in Dublin was a fantastic experience for the Spanish Tourism Office. We were delighted with the great attendance and the genuine interest shown by Irish visitors in Spain’s diverse destinations. Our partner regions were equally pleased with the positive engagement and enthusiasm throughout the event.

The Holiday World Show Dublin was a fantastic experience for Riviera. It proved to be one of the strongest platforms for boosting brand awareness in Ireland, giving us invaluable face time with both new and returning customers. Footfall throughout the weekend was consistently high, and the quality of interactions and engagement exceeded our expectation. Visitors came with genuine interest and meaningful questions, leading to productive conversations and a real sense of connection. It was a brilliant opportunity to showcase what makes Riviera special, and we look forward to returning.

Visit Portugal’s participation at the Holiday World Show 2026 was key to showcasing the Country’s rich roots and traditions. Irish visitors showed strong interest in discovering Portugal further, exploring new products and emerging destinations. Congratulations to all the staff for the support.

The show has been a joy to take part in. We benefited from introducing Fiji as a destination for the first time. It was well organised with good support and lots of opportunities for added value.

We had a fantastic experience exhibiting at the Holiday world show this year. The event was incredibly well organised, with a steady flow of engaged visitors who were genuinely interested in travel and planning their next adventure. It was a pleasure meeting so many potential Camino walkers in person, answering questions face to face and hearing people’s excitement as they started imagining their journey to Santiago. The atmosphere was vibrant, professional, and full of positive energy throughout the weekend. A big thank you to the organisers for creating such a valuable platform for travel companies and travellers to connect. We left feeling inspired, energised and already looking forward to returning next year.
