Cebu Travel Catalog International (CTCI) marks its 10th anniversary in 2026 with the theme “Wander Beyond Borders.” Recognized as Cebu’s premier travel and tourism exhibition, CTCI continues to connect key tourism players and strengthen Cebu’s role as a gateway to the world.

CTCI 2026 runs from February 13 to 15, 2026, at Ayala Center Cebu in a three-day celebration of travel and exhibitor showcases. Participants can look forward to the Valentines’ Day Travelove Concert on February 14, and the Travel Talk Show and the much anticipated Travel Auction on February 15.

A special session, WanderTalks, will be held on February 15 from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM as guest speakers Dr. Xavier Solis (@dookiesave), Tara Bontol (@trulytara), and Sinjin Pineda (@thesinjinpineda) share stories, practical tips, and insights to help travelers explore smarter and farther.

Over the past decade, CTCI has evolved from a regional travel showcase into a trusted industry platform. It continues to connect businesses and travelers to their dream destinations, while strengthening Cebu’s presence in both local and international tourism networks.

“CTCI has grown because of ten years of shared journeys and strong partnerships, fueled by a collective passion for travel. Our milestone reminds us of how far we have come together,” Cebu Travel and Tours Association (CTTA) President Alan Carvajal highlighted the importance of the milestone year.
