The Department of Tourism, Government of Rajasthan, in collaboration with the Ministry of Tourism, Government of India, and the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI), is set to host the 14th edition of the Great Indian Travel Bazaar (GITB) from May 4 to 6, 2025, in the vibrant city of Jaipur, Rajasthan. The event is further supported by key industry associations including the Hotel and Restaurant Association of Rajasthan (HRAR), the Indian Heritage Hotels Association (IHHA), and the Rajasthan Association of Tour Operators (RATO).

Recognized as India’s premier platform exclusively dedicated to inbound tourism, GITB will feature over 11,000 structured and pre-scheduled B2B meetings between Indian tourism service providers and foreign tour operators from more than 50 countries. The two-day bazaar will conclude with familiarization (FAM) tours for the participating buyers, allowing them to explore tourism offerings firsthand.

Key highlights of GITB 2025 include an inaugural session coupled with a focused knowledge session, the release of a comprehensive report on the inbound tourism sector, participation from over 280 foreign tour operators, and an exhibition with more than 300 booths. Exhibitors will include State Tourism Boards, destination management companies, hotels, resorts, and other key stakeholders in the travel and tourism ecosystem.

In addition to business engagements, GITB will also host networking evenings with dinners and cocktails, creating an ideal environment for relationship building and industry collaboration.

The hallmark of GITB 2025 remains its strategic emphasis on inbound tourism, offering unmatched opportunities for Indian sellers to connect with international buyers. The event continues to play a vital role in strengthening India’s position as a preferred global travel destination.
