Entries are now open for the TTG Luxury Travel Awards 2025
The TTG Luxury Travel Awards, in partnership with Silversea, will return in 2025 with 20 categories recognising the travel industry’s most outstanding, innovative and hard-working travel companies and individuals.
New this year is a supplier category called Luxury Expedition Cruise Line of the Year, which joins the lineup to reflect the growth of the sector and is designed for cruise brands that focus on delivering an expedition experience combined with a luxury product on board.
There are a total of nine supplier-focused categories, eight agent categories and two special categories that agents or suppliers can participate in (Luxury Travel Workplace of the Year and Sustainability Hero of the Year). Click here to see all categories.
For the first time, companies will be able to submit their entries through a bespoke entry platform. Evessio, a dynamic awards platform, allows entrants to create a login to submit their entry and then edit their entry more seamlessly than ever before. Entry into the TTG Luxury Travel Awards remains free.
The awards ceremony is set to take place in one of London’s most impressive new hotels on 28 February, with the event taking place in the popular Friday afternoon format at the OWO at Raffles London, featuring welcome drinks in the Lawrence Foyer, followed by a two-course lunch and a glamorous awards ceremony. Over 350 guests are expected to attend and dine in the historic hotel’s magnificent Whitehall Ballroom.
High-profile musical entertainment has become a feature of the Awards and 2025 will be no exception as the Awards partner with Cunard to bring uplifting musical talent to the stage.
The day concluded with the awarding of the ‘Contribution to Luxury Travel’, a prestigious award decided upon by the TTG Media team to recognise an industry icon, with past recipients including Matthew Upchurch of Virtuoso and most recently Edwina Lonsdale of Mundy Cruising in 2024.
New for 2025 will be a Winners Lunch, where the individual winning agents and representatives from their agency sector who were crowned at the event will be invited to an exclusive event in London in partnership with Grecotel.
As well as being a worthy event to celebrate the achievements of our winners, the Winners Lunch helps to foster a deeper level of professional connection and peer-to-peer community amongst the UK’s leading luxury brand agents.
Also new is an industry benchmarking report, distributed free of charge to all suppliers who enter. Using expert analysis, the TTG Luxury Travel Awards report provides unprecedented benchmarking across all supplier entries and showcases influential trends among the world’s leading luxury travel brands.

“Now in its seventh year, the Awards are the travel industry’s longest-running luxury-focused awards and moving to a dedicated platform has made the entry process seamless as we continue to reinvent the way we do things,” said April Hutchinson, Editor and Publisher of TTG Luxury. “Following a magical and memorable event at OWO, Raffles London in 2024, we’re thrilled to be welcoming the awards back to this incredible hotel for the second time and look forward to seeing everyone in February!”
