What Can You Expect at the TravMedia Awards?

NEW

New Categories

Introducing the Luxury Travel Writer of the Year award which recognises excellence in journalism covering the premium travel experience. We’re also redefining the Specialist Travel Writer of the Year by creating two distinct categories: Topic and Destination, allowing for greater recognition of writers exploring diverse travel themes and those showcasing the uique character of specific locations.

A Gala Dinner Event

Now in its fifth year, we've seen the event grow year on year, with last year's Awards attended by more than 320 media, content creators, PRs and industry professionals. What a truly memorable night it was! This year our celebrity host will again drive the show, while around the ballroom our sponsors’ tables will host category finalists.

The Five-Star Treatment

TravMedia has once again chosen the sumptuous 5-star The Londoner in Leicester Square to host this year’s event. The hotel is the epitome of luxury and scaled to accommodate the level of celebration we’re planning for the big night. Attending the TravMedia Awards will be our finalists, sponsors, judges and a limited number of ticket holders.

Party On!

Partying tops the list on this wild night of celebration! The evening commences with a sparkling networking reception and then progresses to the dazzling awards ceremony. Once the last Award has been announced, guests will enjoy an after-party of top-level networking, socialising, and dancing! A fitting end to a memorable night.
