The International Golf Travel Market (IGTM) is the premier annual gathering for the global golf-travel sector, bringing together destinations, resorts, courses, tour operators, travel agents, and media under one roof. 

Since its inception in 1998, IGTM has offered a unique platform for business growth, knowledge-sharing, networking and trend-spotting across the golf-tourism industry. 

What makes IGTM special

• Pre-scheduled appointments: A central feature of IGTM is the matched meetings between golf-travel suppliers (destinations, resorts, courses) and qualified buyers (tour operators, travel agents)—giving structure and business focus to the event. 

• Global reach & rotating locations: The event shifts to a new host destination each year, broadening exposure for delegates and enabling exploration of regional golf-travel markets. 

• Industry insight & innovation: Alongside the business meetings, IGTM provides content around trends—such as sustainability in golf tourism, technology, luxury golf travel, and the evolving golfer experience. 

• Networking & value creation: Attendees appreciate the opportunity to meet many relevant contacts in one place, grow their business, and stay informed. For many, IGTM is a "must-attend" on the golf-travel calendar.

Who attends

IGTM draws a mix of:

• Leadership from golf destinations, resort operators, golf courses
