Dominican Republic showcases its tourism potential at the Top RESA 2026 fair in Paris
The Dominican Republic is preparing to captivate the European market with a stellar presence at the IFTM Top RESA 2026 fair, which will take place at the Paris Expo Porte de Versailles from September 15 to 17. With an impressive stand of more than 400 square meters, the Caribbean country seeks to consolidate itself as the preferred destination for French travelers and those from the rest of the continent.
Since the eve of the event, technical teams have been working intensely on the assembly of this space, designed not only to showcase traditional tourist attractions, but also to offer an immersive experience through gastronomy, music, and vibrant Dominican culture.
A track record of success on international stages
The commitment to an imposing design responds to the country’s strategy of maintaining its leadership in the global tourism industry. The Dominican Republic has proven to be a benchmark in the creation of high-level exhibition spaces, accumulating significant recognition recently:
- Award for Best Stand in the Countries/Regions category during FITUR 2025.
- “Best Stand Feature” award at World Travel Market (WTM) London 2025, thanks to its interactive and sensory proposal.
This type of recognition has contributed to strengthening the Dominican Republic’s presence at major international tourism fairs, where the country seeks not only to promote its beaches and hotel complexes, but also to showcase the richness of its gastronomy, music, culture, nature, and range of experiences.
Strategic focus on the French market
Participation in Paris is key to the Dominican tourism expansion strategy. After having managed to recover and strengthen air connectivity with France during 2025, the goal now is to capitalize on that flow of visitors and reaffirm the country as the quintessential tourist benchmark of the Caribbean.
With this solid commitment at Top RESA 2026, the Dominican Republic reaffirms its dedication to the growth of the sector, using each international fair as a platform to connect with new markets and consolidate the country brand in the eyes of the world.
