Tailor-made travel specialist Goway will bring together travel professionals, destination suppliers, tourism boards, and its expert team for the inaugural Asia Forum next month. The all-day event is set for June 9 in Toronto. 

Goway’s new event all about the Asian travel market is inspired by its popular Africa & Middle East Gathering and will assemble over 20 of Goway’s travel partners from across Asia, including China, Japan, Thailand, and Vietnam. It’s free to attend for travel advisors and offers essential sales information and networking for professionals selling Asian travel products. 

The free event includes: 

  • A full day of presentations from dedicated suppliers across Asia. 
  • Panel discussions with experts on trends within Asian travel and sales tips for travel professionals, such as Japan Unfiltered: Trends, challenges, and what travel advisors need to know about selling Japan. 
  • Networking opportunities and practical advice on how to grow FIT or custom group travel business. 

“The 2026 Goway Asia Forum has been a long time coming and I couldn’t be more excited to finally make it a reality,” says Moira Smith, VP Asia at Goway, 

“This inaugural event brings together an extraordinary lineup of suppliers from across Asia—a true reflection of the depth, diversity, and quality that define Goway’s Asia portfolio. Whether you’re a seasoned Asia specialist or just beginning your professional journey, this event will change the way you sell the continent and craft dream vacations for globetrotters.” 

Registrations for the Toronto event on June 9 are now open to professional travel advisors. Advisors can also attend a Virtual Forum on June 8 via Riverside FM. Stay informed about the virtual event by joining  Goway’s private Facebook group for travel advisors. Find out more at GowayPro.com.
