Pre-registration for duty-free and travel retail’s leading trade show, which will take place at the Palais des Festivals in Cannes from 2nd to 6th October, is open until 8th September.
The recent lift of restrictions means that travellers entering France are no longer required to present proof of vaccination or a negative Covid-19 test, regardless of their country of origin.
With networking remaining the top priority for many industry colleagues, this year’s edition offers participants a plethora of social opportunities, including the TFWA Lounge, for which Qatar Duty Free has been confirmed as the main partner. The ‘TFWA Lounge: after-work session’ will take place on Carlton Beach from Monday to Wednesday between 18:30 and 21:00, and in addition to this, a new late night social gathering – ‘TFWA Lounge: night-time session’ – also hosted on Carlton Beach will run on the same days between 23:00 and 02:00.
Other event sponsors include Mondelez International, Santa Margherita, Heineken, Duty Free Global, Quintessential Brands Group, Perfetti van Melle, Bonne Maman and Brown-Forman.
“Both the scope of brands and quality of visitors that have confirmed their participation at the 2022 TFWA World Exhibition & Conference are a testimony to the business recovery acceleration. Bringing the world’s duty free and travel retail professionals together in person is crucial to drive our industry’s future. We, at TFWA, are confident that all those attending this year will feel the positive vibes. I would like to thank all partners involved in the preparation of this milestone TFWA World Exhibition & Conference edition.”, said Erik Juul-Mortensen, TFWA President.
