E B Blah, President of the North East India Tourism Confederation, and Tsering Wange, Convention Chairman, outline how the March 2026 programme aims to strengthen tourism collaboration and visibility

The North East India Tourism Confederation has announced that it will host the National Tourism Convention and Familiarisation Tour from March 13 to March 18, 2026, as part of a coordinated effort to promote the North East as a unified tourism destination. The initiative is designed to bring national attention to the region’s cultural diversity, natural landscapes, and growing potential across leisure and adventure tourism segments.
Planned as a multi day engagement, the convention will see participation from tourism stakeholders, official representatives, and industry partners from all eight states of the North East, ensuring broad regional representation. The programme aims to project the region as a single, integrated tourism offering rather than a collection of individual destinations.

The convention is expected to bring together tour operators, travel agencies, media professionals, digital influencers, and tourism stakeholders from across India. Participants will be offered curated destination experiences through guided familiarisation tours across multiple locations, allowing them to experience the region’s tourism infrastructure, attractions, and local communities first hand.
According to the organisers, the initiative seeks to foster stronger business to business partnerships while encouraging community based and sustainable tourism practices. By creating direct engagement between regional stakeholders and national industry players, the convention aims to improve visibility and market integration for North East India within the broader tourism ecosystem.

Speaking on the initiative, E B Blah, President of the North East India Tourism Confederation, said the convention is expected to generate meaningful collaboration and long term opportunities for the tourism sector. He noted that the region holds significant untapped potential and that such platforms play an important role in integrating the North East more effectively into the national tourism circuit.
Tsering Wange, Convention Chairman of NEITC, said the National Tourism Convention and FAM Tour has been conceptualised to present the North East as a single tourism destination. He added that the event is designed to enable stakeholders from across the country to experience the region directly, build industry partnerships, and highlight the tourism strengths of the North Eastern states. According to him, the initiative is expected to create new opportunities for collaboration and strengthen the region’s position on the national tourism map.

The six day programme will include interactive sessions, networking meets, destination showcases, and field visits curated to highlight the diversity of tourism experiences available across the region. With participation from Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Meghalaya, Manipur, Mizoram, Nagaland, Tripura, and Sikkim, the convention aims to present a collective vision for tourism growth and development.
The North East India Tourism Confederation has invited tourism professionals, travel writers, digital creators, and industry representatives from across India to participate in the convention, positioning the event as a key platform for engagement and collaboration ahead of the upcoming travel seasons.
