IGTM 2026 in Cannes: hotels for the golf travel show

The International Golf Travel Market (IGTM) returns to Cannes from 19 to 22 October 2026 as the global meeting point for golf travel professionals. At its core are pre-scheduled meetings between destinations, resorts, golf courses and specialist tour operators — a format that has been proven since 1998 as the most effective way to close business in this niche. Alongside the classic IGTM programme, IGTM Discovery extends the show to the broader golf ecosystem: technology, retail, equipment, apparel and club operations. Together they form a connected environment driving commercial growth around 500 exhibitors, 300 hosted buyers and over 1,000 trade visitors from 80 countries. The host venue is again the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès, right on Boulevard de la Croisette in the heart of the city. Cannes itself adds to the draw for golf business: beaches, palatial hotels and some of the most scenic courses on the French Riviera. Attendees flying into Nice can use the complimentary airport shuttle on 18 and 19 October. If your business sells golf experiences, technology or services, or if you book golf travel internationally, IGTM is where contracts are signed and long-term relationships are built.
