Eighteen awards are decided by the panel. One belongs to the public, and it is built to be rallied for.
The moment a nomination lands, the creator gets a public page and a shareable card. Every nominee can be voted for immediately.
One vote per email in each category per round, confirmed by email, throwaway addresses rejected. Totals are audited before the premiere.
Round one runs with nominations, 1 November to 14 February, on every nominee. The finals run 22 February to 7 March on the finalists. The People's Passport is decided by the votes; the panel decides the other 18.
Every nominee gets a personal vote link and a share kit. The creator whose audience shows up hardest takes The People's Passport.
Any travel creator, anywhere in the world, on any platform. TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, podcast, newsletter, blog. There is no follower minimum, because we judge impact, not size.

A named industry panel scores every entry against published criteria. One category, The People's Passport, is decided by public vote. Partners never vote on outcomes.

No. The 2027 winners premiere online, so every creator competes on equal terms wherever they are. Winners receive the Gold Passport by post and are invited to the live ceremony in Berlin, ITB week, when it launches.
