This year’s TNT Travel Show 2013 promises to be bigger and better than ever – doubling to a two-day affair over March 9-10 in the same year TNT Magazine celebrates its 30th birthday.

Held at the Islington Business Design Centre, the TNT Travel Show (tnttravelshow.com) extravaganza is dedicated to finding visitors their ultimate holiday, with exclusive show deals, expert seminars and inspirational advice.

As well as discounts of up to 50 per cent on trips and holidays in the UK, Europe and worldwide, visitors can also book group trips, overland routes and off-the-beaten track destinations in Eastern Europe, Africa, America, South America, Asia and Australasia.

Boasting even more exhibitors than last March’s TNT Travel Show, the event will showcase everyone from tour operators to hostel and campervan companies – everything visitors need for a full travel itinerary, tailored to every budget.

Exhibitors include Topdeck, Travel Talk, Contiki, Busabout, On The Go and Sail Croatia.

As well as top deals at the TNT Travel Show – London’s largest free travel show with 3500 free pre-registered tickets available for every day of the show and tickets priced at just £2 after that – visitors can listen to expert advice at our free-to-attend seminars.

Zoe Craig, senior editor at VisitLondon will be giving the lowdown on secret London; ’50 countries before you’re 30′ is the topic Emma Jones, author of Gap Years – The Essential Guide, will be tackling; and travel blogger Dylan Lowe (aka The Travelling Editor) will be discussing social media for travellers.

Also giving destinations talks are Trek America, while Topdeck will be offering expert advice on Europe and the biggest and best festivals.

TNT Travel Show visitors can also expect to win prizes on the day – with blogging and travel photography competitions due to be announced on tntmagazine.com – as well as relax in the bar area.

“Every year it’s astounding to see the amount of trips booked on the day – some of our visitors come armed with an itinerary for five or six trips,” Carol Driver, group editor at TNT Multimedia, says.

“Last year people were queuing to get into the show before the doors opened – and, with the exclusive travel deals and jam-packed programme of seminars and entertainment on offer, we expect it to be the same on March 9-10.

“And doubling the show to two days is a great way to mark TNT Magazine’s 30th birthday.”

The show opening times are Saturday, March 9, 10am-6pm, and Sunday, March 10, 10am-3.30pm, at the Business Design Centre, 52 Upper Street, Islington, London, N1 0QH.
