The 16th edition of the annual spa industry event Forum Hotel and Spa (ForumHOTel&SPA) is fast approaching and is set to take place on 30 May 2024, at the Hotel Four Seasons George V in Paris, France.

The annual event provides a meeting space for the international spa and hospitality industries. This year its theme will be “Wellness – The Choice of Boldness” and the schedule is shaping up with a star-studded speaker line-up of outstanding international industry figures – including Nils Behrens, managing director and CMO of Lanserhof Group Germany, who will kick off proceedings with his keynote “From a Single Location to a Global Brand”.

A host of established industry suppliers, including Olivier Claire and Gharieni, will also be in attendance as valued partners.

Event founder and industry veteran Vladi Kovanic said: “Every year, Forum Hotel and Spa brings together global industry leaders, creating a dynamic platform for knowledge exchange and networking.

“The conference highlights the latest innovations and trends and also serves as a forum for sharing valuable experiences. It stands as an annual beacon for news and insights in the spa and hotel industry while presenting opportunities and insights to drive businesses forward for the year ahead and beyond."

As in previous years, the forum will feature a Black and Blue Diamond Awards ceremony which honours professionals working in spa and thalassotherapy, as well as the Red Diamond award for the Wellness Personality of the Year.

Forum Hotel and Spa is partnered with the Medical Wellness Congress (MWC) and the World Spa Organization (WSO).
