"The Travel Buyer's Panel was brilliant. To get that amount of insight and understanding of the sector and the airlines was extremely valuable. Thank you."

It was excellently organised and very beneficial to meet relevant suppliers in one place.

Engaging conversations and delicious samples made the TickEat event an encouraging success for us! We thoroughly enjoyed showcasing Datekin and Tuffnut, and we're already looking forward to our next event.

The recent TickEat Meet The Buyer event was fantastic. *We love attending these events to meet both current and new suppliers who are well set up for industry.* The TickEat team take great care of everything meaning we can focus on our meetings with suppliers.

TransPennine Express

My first time attending TickEat and I was really surprised how many suppliers were at the event. *Such an eye opener of a vast array of new products which are readily available and suitable for the travel sector!*

The organization was excellent in facilitating the venue and the meetings, showcasing strong experience and a robust network within the airline industry.

Bel UK

We found the TickEAT 'Meet The Buyer' event a worthwhile trade show to attend. It was well organised with plenty of opportunities not only to connect with buyers at the formal meetings, but also during the 2 days during breaks, and at the evening dinner.

What's Cooking? for Professionals

After this TickEat event, it was clear that buyers are craving soulful, purpose-led flavour. Our South Asian streetfood hit the spot, so after the Taster Session we took part in (giving us a taste of the event) we’re stepping up to the full TickEat Meet The Buyer showcase in 2026…

Urban Rajah
