FAB 2026 Bengaluru event gains momentum with BTA Food & Services as Platinum Partner

INDIA. TAV Airports subsidiary BTA Food & Services has signed up as Platinum Partner for the Airport Food & Beverage (FAB) + Hospitality Conference & Awards to be held on 7-8 July in Bengaluru.

Owned and organised by The Moodie Davitt Report, this year’s event will be hosted by Bangalore International Airport Limited.

The only global airport food & beverage and hospitality event will bring together senior executives from airports, food & beverage concessionaires and hospitality service providers, as well as other business partners from around the world.

The highly anticipated annual industry gathering will culminate in the FAB Awards Ceremony during the Gala Dinner on 8 July, with the FAB Superstars winners unveiled earlier during the conference.

Founded in 1999, BTA operates global-standard food & beverage services across 16 airports in Türkiye, Georgia, Macedonia, Tunisia, Oman, Latvia, Croatia and Kazakhstan. The company also operates its Cakes & Bakes production facility, manages a hotel, offers in-flight and passenger lounge catering, and travel retail services.

BTA Food & Services CEO Baha Bülbül said, “We are pleased to sponsor FAB once again and support this leading event celebrating outstanding achievements across our industry.”

The FAB 2026 edition marks the event’s 15th anniversary and, for the first time, will embrace the new ‘Airport Hospitality World’ title, dedicated to lounges and all related airport hospitality services.

Besides lounges, hotels, Meet & Greet, concierge services and more, FAB 2026 will also include a historic inclusion element, inspired by Kempegowda International Airport Bengaluru’s recent introduction of a pioneering Sensory Room, a thoughtfully designed space tailored for neurodivergent passengers and individuals with sensory sensitivities.

The full speaker programme will be announced in the coming weeks.
