This webinar is part of the European Travel Commission’s European Tourism – Trends and Prospects project.
Tourism Economics will reflect on the latest travel performance in Europe during the summer and highlight key trends that have emerged. This will be supported by further insights from MMGY-TCI research, focusing on traveller sentiment over the past year. In addition, Tourism Economics will outline several important findings to come out of their latest surveys and how they could shape European travel demand going into 2026.
