OMCA Marketplace 2026
The OMCA Marketplace (Nov 2‑4, 2026, Waterloo Region) is a two‑day, group‑tourism marketplace where tour operators (buyers) meet Canadian tourism suppliers (sellers) in rapid 8‑minute appointments. The event features a full schedule of roughly 100 buyer appointments and 20‑25 seller appointments, plus evening networking receptions, lunches, and educational sessions on group‑travel recovery. Sponsors can showcase their brands through sponsorship packages, meal sponsorships, and exhibition space. A Buyer Incentive Program offers travel and accommodation support for qualified buyers, while registration fees differ for members, non‑members, and additional delegates. Additional services include online appointment booking (Oct 6‑17), dietary‑allergy accommodations, and a downloadable information sheet for sellers. The marketplace emphasizes high‑density networking, product demos, and knowledge sharing to drive future group bookings.
