Eikon Exhibition Centre is excited to announce that the highly anticipated Meet the Buyer 2025 event will take place at the Venue on March 27th and 28th, 2025. This premier B2B event serves as a vital platform for tourism businesses in Northern Ireland to connect with a pre-qualified group of international buyers from key markets around the world, opening doors to new opportunities for collaboration and business growth.
Following the resounding success of Meet the Buyer 2024, the 2025 event will be even bigger, offering tourism businesses more opportunities than ever to engage with international tour operators.
