CWT M&E, the global meetings and events division of CWT, unveiled its ranking of the top 10 cities for meetings and events in Asia Pacific (APAC), with Shanghai holding on to the coveted number one spot.
The ranking is based on proprietary and industry data contained in CWT's 2020 Meetings & Events Future Trends report, to be published next week.
The top 10 cities for meetings and events in APAC (versus 2019):
1. Shanghai, China (1)
2. Beijing, China (3)
3. Singapore (2)
4. Bangkok, Thailand (4)
5. Sydney, Australia (5)
6. Tokyo, Japan (6)
7. Hong Kong, China (7)
8. Mumbai, India (9)
9. Melbourne, Australia (8)
10. Chengdu, China (10)
The top 10 list in APAC has proven sticky, with the exact same cities featured in both the 2020 and 2019 lists—with most hardly budging from last year's rankings and with no new entrant in sight. China, once again, netted the most entries, including Beijing and Chengdu, and continues to drive M&E activity in the region.
