South Pacific Pocket Guide Marks Fifth Year Sponsoring SPTE 2026, Driving Digital Growth for Pacific Tourism

South Pacific Pocket Guide celebrates its fifth consecutive year as a sponsor of the South Pacific Tourism Exchange (SPTE) 2026, taking place on 25–26 March in Nadi. This milestone underscores the Guide’s ongoing commitment to empowering tourism operators across the Pacific Islands through strengthened digital opportunities. As one of the region’s most significant industry events, SPTE continues to connect buyers, sellers, and media from around the world, showcasing the Pacific’s diversity and resilience on the global stage.

For South Pacific Pocket Guide, the event represents not only a sponsorship milestone but also a platform for collaboration with destinations embracing digital innovation and sustainable tourism growth. The South Pacific Tourism Exchange 2026 (SPTE 2026) will be held from 25–26 March 2026 at the Crowne Plaza Resort & Spa, Nadi, Fiji.

Robin, Operations Manager of South Pacific Pocket Guide, says the long-standing relationship with SPTE has played a pivotal role in the company’s regional growth. “SPTE has been a valuable event for us since 2018, consistently connecting us with destinations that are eager to digitalise their tourism industry,” says Robin.

“Through detailed online travel guides and cross-platform tourism provider listings, we’re able to support operators in building their digital presence while enabling online bookings on their own terms, rather than at the whim of larger corporations.” He adds, “SPTE is something we’re always excited to support. We’re grateful to the organisers and participating destinations for continuing to foster collaboration across the region.” As SPTE 2026 approaches, South Pacific Pocket Guide looks forward to reconnecting with tourism boards, operators and industry stakeholders in Fiji.

In acknowledging South Pacific Pocket Guide’s fifth consecutive year as a sponsor of the South Pacific Tourism Exchange, SPTO Chief Executive Officer Christopher Cocker commended SPPG for their ongoing support as it reflects a shared commitment to strengthening digital opportunities for tourism operators across our region.

He added as SPTE continues to connect Pacific sellers with global buyers and media, partnerships like these ensure our destinations remain visible, competitive, and ready to showcase the richness of our cultures and communities to the world.”

“We are delighted to celebrate South Pacific Pocket Guide’s fifth consecutive year as a sponsor of SPTE. Their continued commitment to strengthening digital opportunities for tourism operators across the Pacific reflects the kind of enduring partnerships that help our region thrive. Together, we are ensuring that Pacific destinations remain visible, competitive, and connected to global markets,” Cocker said.
