Today marks the opening of TTF, Gujarat’s largest travel trade expo, which will feature four rooms, 900+ exhibitors, and high-level delegations from Sri Lanka and India on July 31, 2025. Located in the centre of Gujarat, Ahmedabad is a bustling commercial centre and one of the leading domestic and international travel source marketplaces in India, which makes it the perfect place for TTF. Ahmedabad is the ideal location for an event of this size since it provides good national and international connectivity, as does Gandhinagar, the state capital and a rapidly growing venue for business events and exhibits.

TTF’s standing as Gujarat’s premier travel trade exhibition and one of India’s most reliable venues for superior networking and strategic alliances was reinforced by the robust participation from tourism boards throughout the country and an outstanding display by private exhibitors.
Gujarat accounts for 5.85% of direct and 9.55% of indirect tourist GDP, or roughly 15.4% of India’s overall tourism output, according to the National Council of Applied Economic Research’s (NCAER) most recent National Tourist Report. At any given time, 30–40% of Indian tourists are Gujarati, who regularly make up 8% of domestic travel and a sizeable share of outbound tourism.
