TRANSCRIPT
WHERE IS
Paradise comes in as many forms as there are grains of white sand on that beach you’ve been dreaming about. When we ask ourselves, where is paradise? Perhaps what we also mean is: How is paradise? How is it treated and experienced? How is it protected and sustained? How does it affect you, but equally important is: How do you affect it?
Among the new travelers, recognition has turned into a real movement, a conscious shift towards mindful, sustainable travel, and a call for change. If paradise is going to be more than another sales pitch, we must be more aware of how, where, and why we travel.
We’re challenging ourselves to examine a more complex and interconnected idea of paradise, one that begins at our doorsteps, embraces the world around us, and looks towards a more sustainable future. Explore far and wide, but also closer to home and a bit more deeply. The real answer to where is paradise? is: This is paradise! It is everywhere, all around us – we just have to open our eyes.

MEET THE
The Berlin Travel Festival is a colorful three-day event, bringing together new ways of travel with the new traveler. It’s a fusion of change-makers, brands, creators, influencers, and industry insiders. Together we explore what travel means today – from the way journeys are planned to how moments on the road are captured and shared.
As representatives of the new traveler, we value innovative, sustainable solutions and strive to create a better tomorrow as a community. We are committed to our environmental and social responsibility.
The festival is a celebration of the new consciousness in travel and tourism. We endeavor to engage, debate and exchange with thinkers, brands, and travelers on this journey.

THE NEW TRAVELER:
CREATIVE — We are pioneers, unafraid to try new things and willing to take risks, even if we don’t succeed. We feel the call to adventure and embrace new approaches.
POST-MATERIAL — We believe that experiences, authentic moments, and the exchange of information and ideas have value greater than money.
CONSCIOUS — This is our world – and we want to protect it. We consume less, consume consciously, and want to know where and how our products and services are produced.
PERSONAL — We find value in disconnecting digitally and simply being present in the here and now – because a meaningful moment is about more than its documentation.
COLLECTIVE — We believe the diversity of the global community, in both nature and humanity, is beyond value. We want to engage, contribute, and grow as a part of it.
OPEN — The world extends far beyond what we see and experience everyday. We seek to learn from others with backgrounds and knowledge that differs from ours.
The new generation of travelers follow a new set of standards – ones that actively influence their decisions. Together with our community, we’ve defined unique criteria that influence travel planning today. These are the guiding principles for the continuous evolution of the Berlin Travel Festival.

The festival concept is built on three cornerstones:
COMMERCE takes place on the Exhibition Floors – where brands connect, present, and sell their product directly to consumers.
CONTENT is the festival’s secret and your brand ambassador’s strongest tool: tell your brand’s stories to create lasting bonds.
COMMUNITY is the heart of the festival’s vibe, fostering opportunities for networking, exchange, and personal connections.
