Aspire Awards to recognise best in luxury travel
ry sister title Aspire is launching a new set of awards to celebrate the best of the luxury travel sector. The Aspire Awards previously made up part of the annual Travel Weekly Agent Achievement Awards. However, this year they will become a standalone event honouring both agents and suppliers that excel in luxury.
The glittering new event will be held on the evening of September 9 at Hansom Hall at St Pancras Renaissance Hotel London, with 300 people set to attend.
The event is being held in partnership with headline sponsor Celebrity Cruises. Other sponsors supporting the event include ANA, Indulgent Escapes by Jet2holidays, Seabourn and Silversea Cruises.
Editor Hollie-Rae Brader said: “The luxury travel sector continues to grow, with more businesses launching high-end products or focusing on affluent travellers.
“Alongside this, Aspirecontinues to grow to serve this exciting sector. I’m delighted to announce the launch of the first standalone Aspire Awards, which will honour the stars of our sector through a very thorough voting and judging process.”
