The one paragraph version

The Passport Awards is the first credible global awards honouring travel creators: the TikTokers, YouTubers, podcasters and writers who now drive where the world books, flies, stays and goes. Nineteen awards, judged by an industry panel on impact rather than follower count, free to enter, with the winners premiered online on Monday 15 March 2027, the eve of ITB Berlin. Winners receive a golden embossed passport, and the live ceremony is coming to Berlin during ITB week.

The angle for trade press

Booking decisions have moved to social, and the industry's recognition has not followed the money until now. The awards also publishes The Stamped 100, an annual judged ranking of the world's 100 most influential travel creators, plus a State of Travel Creators report built from nomination and judging data.

The angle for consumer and creator economy press

Travel is the biggest creator economy vertical without its own credible awards. This is the Webby moment for travel content: a new institution, a new annual ranking, and an online premiere built for creators rather than black tie.
