Going for
It’s time to decide who you think deserves to be in the running for the prestigious Globe Travel Awards 2026
It’s been another exciting year for the travel trade, forging ahead in the face of a challenging global picture and proving, once again, that resilience and innovation are at the core of our industry – and 2025 isn’t over yet. Now, it’s time to reflect on everything the industry has achieved as we gear up for a night of fun and celebration at the Globe Travel Awards 2026. Make sure to mark January 15, 2026, on your calendar
and start preparing for the biggest night of the travel year, which will be hosted at the JW Marriott Grosvenor House London on Park Lane. As ever, attendees can expect a showstopping line-up of entertainment, star-studded performances and, most importantly, a raft of awards to honour those who have excelled this year. With your help, we will be honouring the operators and
suppliers you feel have stood out in the past year, from established favourites to up-and-coming brands that you now regularly recommend to your customers. So, dust off your dancing shoes and finest attire as you start thinking about who deserves to be in the running for a coveted Globe.
Ready, steady, nominate Nominations are open now, so make sure your voice is heard and weigh in on who deserves their moment on stage.
Whether an airline or hotel group has gone the extra mile to accommodate your clients’ needs, a cruise line has offered such consistent service that clients have come back to book again, or you’ve received outstanding support from a tour operator or trade team, this is your chance to show them how much you appreciate their efforts. For this year’s event, we’ve introduced three new awards.
These recognise the growth in luxury river cruising; praise the vital support of ancillary providers offering add-ons, attraction tickets and insurance; and honour the best supplier representative to highlight the exceptional support offered by those individuals who you know will always be at the end of the phone if you have a problem to solve. You can also look forward to our five Special Awards, which highlight those who have exceeded expectations and made a real impact. Turn to pages 42-43 to read more about how to nominate your company or a colleague. Remember, it’s all down to you. These awards are entirely nominated and voted for by frontline agents who know which suppliers go above and beyond the call of duty. Your key partners will only make it on to the shortlists if you show them your support, so now’s the time to submit your nominations (page 40) to decide who will have a chance to claim a glittering Globes trophy.
‘CHOOSING THE WINNERS BEGINS WITH YOU’
“The Globe Travel Awards is the biggest celebration in travel and our 2026 ceremony promises to be another unforgettable event, honouring those who continue to set the highest standards across the industry,” says Lucy Huxley (pictured), editor-in-chief of Travel Weekly. “This year, we’re excited to introduce new award categories that reflect the evolving landscape of travel, recognising the growth of the luxury river cruise market and shining a light on the hard-working supplier representatives who provide day-to-day support to agents. “Choosing the winners begins with you – the agents whose nominations and votes make the
Globe Travel Awards possible. Nominations are open now, so thank you in advance for taking the time to highlight the suppliers who truly stand out.”
