The Vanuatu Tourism Awards aims to help improve standards and professionalism, whilst encouraging the continual development of the tourism sector.

This years theme is ‘community’, so to recognise collaboration and knowledge sharing within our industry, aimed at helping build the Vanuatu brand and enhancing the visitor experience.

The ultimate goal of the Awards is to attract more tourists to create greater economic opportunity in Vanuatu and build a sustainable future for the industry.

Why should you enter?

By making an official entry, you will have an opportunity to think about your business; your customers; your products and services; and your marketing at a holistic level.

By doing so, you may come across ways to improve what you do and by also competing against other businesses, you might see ideas that could be applied to your business to improve its performance.

What will you get out of the Awards?

The Tourism Awards recognise all entrants. The judging panel also supplies a Feedback Report at the conclusion of the Awards program to provide feedback on submissions and assist with improvements to your business practices.

Winners will be awarded a trophy at the Awards ceremony and, in addition, they are encouraged to use the Award Category Logo to market themselves as tourism awards winners to customers in their marketing collateral for up to two years.

Entering the 2017 Vanuatu Tourism Awards has been made even simpler, as you can now enter online. Or, if you prefer, you can still enter by completing the traditional paper entry.
