Heart Evangelista may be the country’s resident jetsetter—flying off to Paris for Fashion Week or hopping between dreamy islands—but you don’t have to be an A-lister to travel like one. This year’s World Travel Expo (WTE) proves that wanderlust isn’t reserved for the rich or the sponsored.
Set for October 17–19 at SPACE, One Ayala in Makati City, and November 14–16 at Ayala Malls Manila Bay, the two-part expo, now on its 9th year, invites every Juan and Maria to score exclusive airfare, hotel, and tour deals.

Organizers promise “unbeatable promos,” plus fun extras: cultural showcases, lifestyle booths, regional products, and raffles that could have you packing bags sooner than expected.
The event isn’t just a playground for travelers. Airlines, resorts, cruise lines, and tourism boards from here and abroad will join, offering exhibitors and brands a prime networking arena with agencies, content creators, and industry leaders.
Organizer Miles Caballero of AD Asia Events Group frames the event as more than a bargain hunt.
“It’s about reigniting the passion for discovery, strengthening industry partnerships, and celebrating the role of travel in connecting cultures,” she said at Wednesday’s media launch.
Whether you’re craving white-sand beaches, buzzing capitals, or hidden local gems, World Travel Expo Year 9 is your boarding pass to new friendships, shared memories, and stories to tell.
Who says Heart gets to have all the fun? Your jet-set journey can start right in Makati—or Manila Bay.
