ISON Travel acquires specialist TMC Screen & Music Travel

UK-based ISON Travel has acquired entertainment specialist travel management company Screen & Music Travel.

Screen & Music Travel, based in Berkshire near London Heathrow airport, has been operating since 1993 and offers “bespoke” services to UK-based TV and film production companies.

It is the second acquisition for ISON this year after the TMC snapped up US-based Global Excellence Inc during the summer. Financial terms of ISON’s deal to buy Screen & Music Travel have not been revealed.

Helen Cannon, who founded ISON in 2013, said: “We are looking to build on and expand our presence in the entertainment space. We have long admired Screen & Music’s reputation in this sector and this acquisition will enable us to enhance our services and extend our reach.

“This represents the next step in our expansion plan and cements our unique offering to our clients, this is an exciting time for us and our customers.”

Following the acquisition, Screen & Music Travel will continue trading “under its well-established company name”.

Colin Doran, director at Screen & Music Travel (SMT), added: “This is a fantastic opportunity for Screen & Music Travel, enabling us to move into the wider entertainment markets.

“I am excited by the opportunity to work with Helen and her team and thrilled for SMT staff to now be part of an award-winning travel management company.”

ISON Travel was ranked as the 29th largest TMC in the UK in the list of Europe’s Leading TMCs 2024, while Screen & Music Travel was in 49th place.
