China's tourism trade fairs bring together destination boards, tour operators, hotels, transport providers, technology companies and buyers. Some events also open selected sessions to consumers, but registration rules, professional-only days, venues and dates change by edition. Use the table as a planning directory rather than a current calendar: confirm the organizer, year, admission category and official venue before arranging flights or hotels.

City: Hong Kong
Venue: Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre when confirmed by the organizer
Admission: Check professional and public-session rules for the current edition.
Chinese name: 香港国际旅游展览会
International Travel Expo Hong Kong covers leisure travel and the meetings, incentives, conventions and exhibitions sector. Read the current exhibitor and visitor pages before registering: a public travel fair ticket may not provide access to trade appointments, and a buyer badge may require supporting documents.
Airport to HKCEC
The Airport Express reaches Hong Kong Station, from where travelers can continue by MTR, taxi or other current public transport to Wan Chai. Allow extra time at peak hours and check the event entrance because the HKCEC complex has multiple halls. If you want a compact cultural extension after meetings, a one-day city walking format illustrates the amount of sightseeing that fits realistically into a free day in a major Chinese city.
Lo Wu control point to HKCEC
Use the MTR journey planner for the current route from Lo Wu to Exhibition Centre or Wan Chai. Interchanges and service patterns can change; follow the route shown on the day rather than an old multi-line instruction.
Huanggang port to HKCEC
Cross-boundary coach, rail and local transport options vary by operating period. Confirm immigration-point hours, the drop-off location and the last return service before choosing this route.
City: Guangzhou
Timing and venue: Confirm the current edition on the organizer's website before travel.
Chinese name: 广州国际旅游展览会
GITF is a professional tourism platform with destination, operator and supplier participation. Register under the correct visitor category and use the published hall map; the Canton Fair Complex is large and has several transit approaches. For a post-event regional extension, the Guangzhou-to-Guilin itinerary connects the gateway with a contrasting landscape destination.
Host city: Announced for each edition
Date and venue: Use the current organizer release, not an undated alternating-city rule.
Chinese name: 中国国际旅游交易会
China International Travel Mart is a major professional marketplace for destinations and tourism businesses. Exhibitors should distinguish setup, trade and any public days; visitors should confirm whether an appointment, badge or invitation is required. If the trip also includes Beijing and Shanghai, a high-speed rail itinerary between the two gateways offers a more realistic extension than adding an unrelated city between fair days.
City: Beijing
Date and venue: Confirm the current edition with the organizer.
Chinese name: 北京国际旅游博览会
Beijing's tourism expo has served as a destination-promotion and industry-exchange platform. Before relying on an older event name or venue, verify that the edition is active, identify professional versus public sessions, and book accommodation near the confirmed hall rather than near a previous location.
