Venue
The Annexe at The Champagne Bar
The Annual Africa Tourism Evening is a curated evening held in central London for the UK travel trade selling Africa. Co-hosted by African properties, DMCs, luxury rail and other experiences, the evening brings together members of the travel trade from the UK's leading luxury, specialist and adventure tour operators in an intimate setting designed for genuine relationship-building. The format is deliberately the opposite of a trade show floor — no booths, no time pressure apart from optional pre-bookable catch-ups. Just the right people in the right room, raising a glass with one another. One of the evening's highlights is a prize draw designed to reward the buyers who have championed African travel that year. Attendance is by invitation; verified UK trade buyers and African suppliers can request access via aate.events.
