Slovenia to Host International Golf Travel Market 2018
Slovenia and Ljubljana, the European Green Capital 2016, will host the 2018 edition of the International Golf Travel Market (IGTM), the world’s premier global event for the golf tourism industry. The capital of Slovenia, known for its vast green areas, was proclaimed Undiscovered Golf Destination of the Year 2015.

Ljubljana will welcome IGTM 2018 to the GR Exhibition and Convention Centre, located in the heart of Ljubljana, from October 15 – 18, 2018. Ljubljana and Slovenia in general are fast-growing golf destinations, with a wide range of international standard courses, including Royal Bled Golf Course – the oldest in the country. Alongside high-quality hotels, Slovenia is known for its excellent gastronomic heritage and modern cuisine, led by Ana Roš, the World’s Best Female Chef in the 2017 World’s 50 Best Restaurants awards.
Žiga Osterc, President of the Golf Tourism Association in Slovenia, said: “We are very proud to have been selected as the host destination of IGTM 2018 and we look forward to welcoming the leading golf tourism suppliers, buyers and media from across the globe to Slovenia. By hosting IGTM here, visitors will be able to see for themselves why Slovenia is not only one of Europe’s growing golf-holiday destinations, but an unforgettable tourist experience as well.” Peter Grimster, Exhibition Manager, Reed Travel Exhibitions, added: “The quality of the golf courses and resorts is outstanding and, combined with the excellent conference facility available in one of Europe’s most picturesque capital cities, we are confident that IGTM 2018 will be a huge success.”
The appointment-based event, organised by Reed Travel Exhibitions, regularly attracts more than 400 buyers and over 550 golf travel suppliers, highlighting its reputation as the premier global event for golf tourism professionals.
