Catalan Tourist Board

At the World Travel market, UK.

The Agència Catalana de Turisme (ACT) UK office is the official representation of the Catalan Tourist Board in the United Kingdom and Ireland. It is responsible for promoting Catalonia as a tourist destination to the British and Irish markets.

Every November, the ACT is a regular and prominent exhibitor at the World Travel Market (WTM) in London. The organisation uses the event to showcase Catalonia to the UK market, with a particular focus on attracting high-value, sustainable tourism.

To complement the event, they also host a dinner, inviting key representatives from the tourism industry and highlighting the best of Catalan gastronomy. Catalonia is a 2025 World Region of Gastronomy destination, a title from the International Institute of Gastronomy, Culture, Arts and Tourism.

As a photographer, I’ve been covering this annual event for many years now. Here is a resume of 2025: Gallery 01: WTM / Gallery 02: Dinner at the Shard.
