Morocco is aiming to strengthen its position in the Indian market through MNTO’s 'Kingdom of light Showcase' roadshow, which concluded across Delhi, Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, and Chennai. The event aimed to showcase Morocco's diverse leisure tourism offerings, with 14 delegates from Morocco engaged in dialogue with over 300 travel trade professionals across four cities.
The Delhi edition of the roadshow featured the presence of Mohamed Maliki, Ambassador of the Kingdom of Morocco to India. While addressing the attendees, he stated: "The roadshow is a reflection of the deep and enduring friendship between Morocco and India. Tourism is one of the most powerful expressions of that friendship, and we are committed to ensuring that the Indian travel trade has the knowledge and inspiration to bring more Indian travellers to our Kingdom.”
Since 2019, Indian arrivals to Morocco have surged by 224%, with 2025 recording 53,697 Indian visitors, a 31% year-on-year increase. Travellers are returning with stories that go far beyond the expected, and many are going back for more. Also, Morocco reported significant infrastructure investments in preparation for co-hosting the 2030 FIFA World Cup adds to its readiness to welcome Indian travellers in greater numbers.
Reflecting on the roadshow's success, Jamal Kilito, Country Manager – India, MNTO, added, "India is one of Morocco's fastest growing and most strategically important source markets, and the enthusiasm we have witnessed from the travel trade across all four cities has been truly encouraging. Our focus goes beyond awareness as we are building lasting partnerships that drive real conversion, and this roadshow is central to that mission."
With a target of 75,000 Indian visitors in 2026, the Kingdom of light Showcase roadshow said to mark a significant step in MNTO's mission to deepen Morocco's presence in the Indian market.
