The industry’s showpiece event will be taking place in Cannes 29 September-4 October

Pre-registration for this year’s TFWA World Exhibition & Conference is now open.

As ever, the week-long event is taking place in Cannes and is centred around the Palais des Festivals where the exhibition and conference will take place. The event will this year take place on 29 September-4 October.

As reported, this year’s event will see the debut of the TFWA Innovation Lab. This development of the TFWA Digital Village will see novel ideas and fresh thinking in areas including customer engagement, digital technology, brand activations, in-store design and sustainability showcased at a new location within the event perimeter close to the Majestic Beach.

Additional changes to the event will see increased exhibition space at the Beach Village, a new registration location at Gare Maritime, and a new venue for the Opening Cocktail, The Scene and Le Premium Evening: Port Canto. In a further change, the Opening Cocktail will be open to all visitor and exhibition badge holders.

TFWA President Alain Maingreaud said: “At a time of both great challenge and opportunity for duty-free and travel retail, this year’s TFWA World Exhibition & Conference will aim to showcase industry excellence and provide solutions in a fast-moving world. I’m certain that our new TFWA Innovation Lab and our great line-up of exhibitors and speakers will provide delegates with essential new ideas and inspiration to help drive their businesses forward.”
