The service is being run by ExpressTest by Cignpost, with PCR and lateral flow tests available at a facility at London’s ExCeL during the event, taking place 1-3 November.

PCR results will be delivered by 10pm the following day and lateral flow results within 40 minutes.

Cignpost ExpressTest has 36 sites around the UK – including Heathrow, Gatwick, Birmingham and Edinburgh airports. 

The announcement comes after WTM organisers reassured attendees and partners last week that the 2021 event would “take place as planned”. 

All attendees will need to verify their Covid status before entry by either producing evidence of double-vaccination, a negative test or proof of natural immunity.

WTM London exhibition director Simon Press said: “Having an on-site test facility takes the hassle out of Covid testing and means it is one less thing our delegates and exhibitors from overseas need to worry about.

"We’re pleased to be working with ExpressTest by Cignpost, a leading provider that has carried out over three million tests to date around the UK. Visitors to WTM London who need to use this service are in good hands."
