The APTRA India Conference 2027 is taking place from 16-18 February in Jaipur.

The Asia Pacific Travel Retail Association (APTRA) has announced that registration is now open for its India Conference 2027, which is taking place from 16-18 February 2027 in Jaipur.

Alongside a full programme of industry discussion and insight, the entertainment programme includes a special occasion on 16 February, which will see delegates welcomed to the City Palace for ‘an evening of royal splendour ‘ in the presence of Rajasthan’s royal legacy, followed by dinner held within the grandeur of their private quarters.

Guests will be received with full royal honours, a traditional ceremonial welcome and a regal entourage, before being escorted to dinner in a private courtyard.

Private access of this kind is exceptionally rare, says APTRA, with the City Palace an active royal residence. The evening is hosted by Ospree, the platinum host partner of the conference.
