MTF Events is pleased to share an update as Mélange 2026 enters its final month of preparations. With 400+ travel brands already confirmed for the third edition of Mélange, to be held on 26–27 September 2026 at Jio World Convention Centre, Mumbai, the response from the travel fraternity has been extremely encouraging.
The growing exhibitor interest, participation from across India and overseas, and the response from buyers reinforce our belief in what we set out to do — a national travel trade platform. The aim of the MTF Events team is to improve on its previous edition with better opportunities for the trade and ensure that the time and money invested by every exhibitor and buyer delivers value.
Mélange has never been about numbers alone. The right exhibitors meeting the right buyers — and having the time to conduct meaningful business — matters far more. The team encourage buyers not to look at Mélange as a quick visit. A meaningful business conversation takes time. There are only so many quality meetings one can have in a day. Spend the time. Discover new products. Meet new partners. Strengthen existing relationships. Markets change. Opportunities return. Businesses that prepare and build relationships today will be better placed for tomorrow.
Business by Day. Networking & Celebrations by Evening. Mélange continues beyond the exhibition floor. Innovation has always been an important part of Mélange. For 2026, the team has several new ideas, initiatives and experiences in the works. With just a month remaining and participation continuing to grow, the message to exhibitors and buyers still considering registration is simple: make plans now.
The team will maintain limits across participation categories because the quality of the Mélange experience matters. MTF Events is built by members of the travel fraternity who remain directly involved and accessible to the industry. We understand the challenges because we work within the same business. The objective is equally simple: The trade must meet better, connect better, do more business, grow and prosper. Everything else follows.
