Every year, thousands of Singaporeans flock to the NATAS Fair at Singapore Expo to lock in their next holiday at prices they simply cannot find online. The 2026 edition is shaping up to be just as popular — with airlines, hotels, cruise lines, and tour operators all competing for your attention across hundreds of booths on the show floor.
If you are planning a trip anywhere in the world in the next 12 months, this is one event you do not want to miss. This guide covers everything you need to know before you go — from expected dates and what deals to look out for, to parking tips and how to make the most of your time at the fair.
What Is the NATAS Fair?
The NATAS Fair is organised by the National Association of Travel Agents Singapore and has been running for decades as one of Singapore's most well-attended consumer travel events. It is held at Singapore Expo and typically draws upwards of 80,000 visitors over a long weekend.
What sets it apart from browsing deals online is the direct access you get to travel agents and brand representatives who can put together custom packages, throw in extras like free airport transfers or travel insurance, and finalise bookings on the spot. Many visitors walk out with confirmed itineraries at prices that would be difficult to match anywhere else.

The NATAS Fair 2026 main edition is expected to take place in August 2026 at Singapore Expo. Official dates have not been confirmed yet, but based on previous years the fair typically runs across a Friday to Sunday long weekend. We will update this page as soon as NATAS makes the official announcement.
- Venue: Singapore Expo, 1 Expo Drive, Singapore 486150
- Expected period: August 2026 (dates TBA)
- Opening hours: Typically 10am to 9pm daily

What Deals Can You Find at NATAS Fair 2026?
The NATAS Fair floor is divided into sections covering different travel categories. Here is a breakdown of what you can typically expect to find at each edition:
Flight Deals and Airline Promotions
Major carriers including Singapore Airlines, Scoot, Jetstar, AirAsia, and Cathay Pacific participate every year with show-exclusive fares that are not available on their websites. These deals are often time-limited to the duration of the fair, so if you see a fare you like, it is worth moving quickly rather than waiting.
Hotel and Resort Packages
International hotel groups from Marriott, Hilton, IHG, Accor, and Shangri-La typically maintain booths at the fair, offering early bird rates for travel in 2026 and 2027. Perks like complimentary breakfast, room upgrades, or kids-stay-free arrangements are often bundled in for bookings made at the fair — perks that do not always show up on standard booking platforms.
Tour Packages by Destination
Tour operators at NATAS Fair 2026 are expected to feature strong offerings for these consistently popular destinations:
- Japan — cherry blossom spring tours and autumn foliage packages
- Australia — family holidays covering Gold Coast, Sydney, and Melbourne
- Europe — group tours through France, Italy, and Switzerland
- Bali — villa stays and wellness retreats
- Korea — K-culture itineraries popular with younger travellers
- Cruises — Royal Caribbean and Dream Cruises cabin promotions
Lucky Draws
Lucky draws are free to enter for all visitors and prizes typically include return air tickets, hotel stays, and travel vouchers. Register at the entrance booth as soon as you arrive — do not leave it until the end of your visit.
How to Get to Singapore Expo for NATAS Fair
The most straightforward way to get to the fair is by MRT. Take the East-West Line or the Changi Airport Branch Line to Expo MRT Station (EW29/CG1), which connects directly to Singapore Expo through a covered walkway with no need to step outside. From City Hall the journey takes around 30 minutes. From Tampines it is five minutes, and from Changi Airport it is just one stop.
If you are driving, Singapore Expo has an attached multi-storey carpark. During busy fair weekends the carpark fills up quickly, especially from mid-morning onwards. Arriving before 10am or after 7pm will help you avoid the worst of the congestion.
Parking Near Singapore Expo During NATAS Fair
Parking at Singapore Expo is chargeable at $1.20 per 30 minutes during the day. If you want to save on parking, there are alternative carparks within walking distance that tend to be cheaper — particularly on weekends when nearby business park carparks open to the public.

Tips to Get the Best Deals at NATAS Fair 2026
Going in with a plan makes a real difference at a fair this size. These are the habits that experienced NATAS Fair visitors swear by:
- Go on the first day — Friday evening is when the freshest deals and limited package slots are available. Popular offers at major airline and hotel booths tend to sell out within the first few hours.
- Bring your payment method — Most booths require a deposit on the spot to lock in fair pricing. Have your credit card or PayNow ready before you go.
- Walk the full hall before committing — Take one full lap of all the halls before paying any deposit. Similar packages from competing agents can vary by $100 to $300.
- Ask for add-ons — Extras like airport transfers, complimentary travel insurance, or room upgrades are frequently available if you simply ask — especially when booking a larger package or travelling as a group.
- Register for lucky draws right away — Head to the registration counter at the entrance first thing when you arrive.
- Get refund policies in writing — Always confirm change and cancellation terms before paying, particularly for travel booked six to twelve months in advance.
