SPTE 2025 will feature a dynamic mix of national tourism offices, inbound tour operators, airlines, hoteliers, resort owners, transport operators, and activity and shore excursion providers from SPTO’s 20 Pacific Island member countries.

But it’s not just about the sellers. International buyers—including travel wholesalers, agencies, planners, and online travel agencies (OTAs)—from over 25 key global markets such as Australia, New Zealand, North America, the UK, Europe, China, and Asia will descend upon Fiji, seeking to connect and create partnerships with Pacific tourism providers.

SPTO Chief Executive Officer Christopher Cocker also welcomed the sponsorship from Fiji Airways and Rosie Holiday who have confirmed their partnership for SPTE 2025. This collaboration demonstrates our sponsor’s dedication to supporting and revitalizing tourism in the Pacific region.

Mr Cocker mentioned that SPTE offered Sellers the chance to connect with international buyers and share the unique, authentic experiences the Pacific is known for. It’s a one-stop shop for buyers to discover new and exciting opportunities that will enrich their travel offerings.

“Join us in May 2025 and be part of the future of Pacific tourism. This will be a dynamic showcase of the Pacific unfolding a vibrant journey of diverse cultures and tourism experiences,” Mr Cocker shared.

“As we open registrations today October 18th, 2024 for this milestone event, we believe that SPTE 2025 will enhance global visibility for the Pacific’s tourism sector and create valuable opportunities for collaboration and growth.

SPTE 2025 promises to deliver more than just business. It’s an event that fosters lasting relationships, cultural exchange, and the growth of sustainable tourism across the Pacific. With sustainability at the forefront, this event will highlight the importance of preserving the natural beauty and cultural heritage that make the Pacific special.
