Live Events 2021

Live events are coming back stronger

We have seen the slow return of events around the world with a big impact. It is impressing to see people coming together through events after several months in lockdown.

 

The travel and gathering regulations are different in every country but it becomes clear that to make possible these massive events the implementation of health and safety protocols and guidelines are the top priority.

 

Here some worldwide events with exciting numbers of attendance:

  • The professional boxing fight with Canelo Álvarez vs. Billy Joe Saunders on May 8 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, United States. A new record crowd of 73,126 pax were registered for an indoor boxing event since the pandemic begin in March 2020.
  • FA Cup Final on May 15 at Wembley Stadium welcomed 21,000 fans for Chelsea FC vs. Leicester match. Registering the biggest crowd in the UK since lockdown.
  • 69th Miss Universe 2021 on May 16 at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida. Organizers considered a minimal audience limited to only 25 percent of the venue’s total capacity and who attended present a negative test result for coronavirus (COVID-19).
  • Premier League Manchester United vs. Fulham match on May 18 at Old Trafford, up to 10,000 supporters return to the stadium.
  • Eurovision Song Contest on May 22 at the Rotterdam Ahoy located in Netherlands. Largest indoor event registered since the lockdown with 3,500 live music fans in attendance. Important to mention that all attendees needed to present a negative test result for coronavirus (COVID-19).

 

On the other hand, the plan for recovery of the United Arab Emirates through the MICE tourism sector is working excellent for the country. Business Tourism is key element in the economic growth of every country. For instance, we have seen many big organizations and companies holding events already or planning their events for 2022 in this attractive destination.

 

In South Korea and China in person conferences, trade shows and events are happening with some restrictions and the health and safety protocols in place but great success.

 

We are confident that the events industry is coming back stronger, the market is looking ahead and preparing for when this happen, even with minimum capacities at the venues the demand for in person events is there.

WTTC Global Summit Philippines

20th Global Summit by WTTC

The World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) in partnership with the Government of Quintana Roo hosted the 20th Global Summit in Cancun, Mexico last 25-27 April.

 

The Global Summit is the most important travel and tourism event, this year was organized with a hybrid format. With all the health and safety protocols in place and antigen testing for the attendees at the Moon Palace Resort in Cancun, over six hundred participants onsite and thirty thousands of people around the world engaged virtually. 

 

It was accessible to be part of this summit trough the social platforms and impressive high quality live streaming. Great program with rich content in multilingual options. Trusted hospitality experts shared their knowledge and expertise.

 

According to the latest Economic Impact Reports by WTTC, in 2020 the global travel and tourism sector suffered a loss of almost $4.5 trillion and 62 million jobs were lost. The message was clear “Uniting the World for Recover” and this could not be possible if the public and private sector collaborate and work together.

 

One of the big highlights of the event was the launching of the Cancun Women’s Initiative Declaration Supporting Women in Travel and Tourism. Which recognize the contribution of women around the world and gender equality in the industry. Women account for 54% of people employed in Travel and Tourism.

 

Consequentially, last year during MICECOnline 2020, WTTC reaffirmed its commitment with the MICE sector in the country and shared the great news regarding the Global Summit 2021 will be hosted in Manila, The Philippines.

 

WTTC formally announced the next host for the 21st Global Summit which is The Philippines. The Tourism Secretary of The Philippines Ms. Bernadette Romulo-Puyat extended a warm welcoming and invitation to one and all in The Philippines at the end of this year.

 

Another great example for our industry that proves that Meetings and Events are possible and relevant for the economic recovery, in addition Events can be organized with all the  global protocols and the safety measurements in place.
