Finalists announced – Travel Media Awards 2015

25 September 2015, London: The Travel Media Awards are pleased to announce the finalists for 2015.

The Awards received over 500 submissions from across the travel media sector before closing for entries in July. Entrants included consumer and trade magazines, national newspapers, broadcasters, regional titles, travel writers and photographers. A panel of over 50 travel industry and media judges then narrowed the field down to a final shortlist of four or five in each category.

Giles Harper, managing director of Travega, co-organiser, said, “The inaugural awards have received superb support from across the travel media sector ad we’d like to thank all those who entered. The standard of submissions was high and the decision-making process has proven very difficult — but with the help of our expert judging panel, we’re confident our finalists represent the very best of the travel media.”

The awards ceremony takes place on Monday 9 November 2015 at the St Pancras Renaissance Hotel, London NW1. Tickets now available:
