New Deal Europe, the primary tourism event for Southeast Europe, will be held in London on March 28, 2023.

This trade fair for the travel trade services sector is a day when pre-arranged meetings are held between travel suppliers from 12 countries - from Slovenia to Greece and everything in between - and buyers, i.e. tour operators and agencies from the UK, Ireland and beyond.

New Deal Europe brings together key speakers and industry leaders in its forum section to discuss and present important topics related to tourism in the region.

New Deal Europe promotes 12 countries in Southeast Europe – from the Alps to the Aegean – and this week they announced the location of their upcoming annual trade fair and forum.

"We are delighted to announce that due to continued growth, we are moving our event to a new location in central London: The Convention Centre, which is ideally located in the heart of the West End", said the co-founder and director of the fair Robert Dee. "The first-class space of the Congress Center will enable us and our partners Jacobs Media Group to organize an extraordinary B2B fair and inspiring presentations of the destinations of national tourist boards.", he continued.

"With the support of a number of tourism boards and ministries from the region, this could be our biggest and best live event yet", he said Tina Murn, the other co-founder and director. "We will bring together representatives from both urban and coastal destinations, as well as rural holiday experts, covering the full spectrum of what the region has to offer. In addition to pre-arranged B2B meetings, there will also be a stimulating, informative session that will lead a panel discussion on the exceptional growth of tourism in the region. Last year, Albania was the fastest growing destination on the planet, and record numbers of Britons arrived in Montenegro, so it is clear that there is huge consumer interest, as well as an exceptional opportunity for tour operators and travel agents to learn more here.", said Murn.

This travel fair focused on the Balkans and Southeastern Europe connects tourism suppliers from Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Kosovo, North Macedonia, Albania, Montenegro, Romania, Bulgaria, Moldova and Greece with operators and agents from the United Kingdom, Ireland and beyond in a series of one-on-one meetings.

In the last two years, New Deal Europe has organized more than 4000 such business meetings, resulting in many regular programs for the region.

"We are confident that this year's event will continue to educate and inspire operators to showcase this exciting and still undiscovered region of Europe", said Dee, "And we look forward to seeing many new faces at the Convention Center on March 28th."
