The next edition of the International Tourism Fair, FITUR, organised by IFEMA MADRID from 24 to 28 January 2024 at the Spanish capital’s trade fair centre, continues to advance in its line of specialisation by helping to promote the different industrial sectors that have an impact on tourism and which have developed an entire tourism strategy around their activity.

Against this backdrop, FITUR’s offerings include some outstanding innovations in the areas of sports, cruises and diversity thanks to the sections FITUR Cruises, FITUR LGBT+ and FITUR Sports.

In this way, they contribute to a better understanding of the cruise tourism experience, as well as broadening the options for seasoned cruisers and reinforcing the loyalty of cruisers to this type of tourism.
