Step 5. Click on the "Summary" tab and then click on "Restore Backup". Choose the backup you just made from the drop-down menu and click on "Restore". Wait for the restore process to complete. You can check the progress in the status bar at the top of iTunes.
Step 6. When the restore is done, your new iPad will restart and display a Hello screen. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up your new iPad and activate it.

You can achieve iPad-to-iPad data transfer with iCloud as well. Just make sure that both devices are connected to Wi-Fi and have enough battery power. By the way, what if you don't have enough iCloud storage? Solve it with these tricks.

Step 4. Wait for the restore process to finish. Your new iPad will download your apps, photos, music, and other data from iCloud.
With the introduction of Quick Start by Apple, transferring files from an old iPad to a new one has become easier than ever before. Quick Start is a feature introduced in iOS 11 that allows you to easily transfer data from one iPad to another without iCloud or a computer.
Here's how to transfer to new iPad:

When you see a message that says "Finish on New iPad", enter your old iPad's passcode on your new iPad.
Step 4. Follow the instructions on your new iPad to set up Face ID or Touch ID, and then choose whether you want to restore from a backup or transfer your data directly from your old iPad.
