Matka for Trade visitors

Welcome to Matka!

Organized annually in January at Messukeskus Helsinki in Finland, Matka Nordic Travel Fair is the largest travel industry event in Northern Europe. Almost 850 exhibitors from 70 different countries ensure an impressive start for the travel year.

Every year, approximately 50,000 consumers and 15,000 travel industry professionals visit the event. The first two days of the event are reserved for travel trade professionals and media.

A platform for travel trade professionals

Matka provides a platform for travel trade professionals and b2b exhibitors to develop their professional expertise, grow business and network in a productive and efficient manner.
