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. Twenty five categories, judged by an industry panel on impact rather than follower count, free to enter, staged in London on Monday 2 November 2026, the day before World Travel Market opens. Winners are stamped on stage and take home a golden embossed passport.

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 a ceremony built for creators rather than black tie.
