India's MICE and Wedding Tourism Set for 12-14% Annual Growth Amid Travel Shifts
India's MICE (meetings, incentives, conferences, and exhibitions) and destination wedding sectors are projected to grow annually by 12-14% over the next 3-5 years, driven by government initiatives like 'Wed in India' and 'Meet in India.' Enhanced infrastructure, improved connectivity, and expanding regional hubs support this growth. Meanwhile, domestic tourism is strengthening as international travel faces challenges from geopolitical tensions, visa issues, and rising airfares, prompting travelers to favor local and nearby destinations.
