Hooray! Part two of the 2018 Australian Travel Awards shortlist is here!

Hold on to your hats, because part two of the 2018 Australian Travel Awards shortlist has arrived!

You can check out part one here (if you somehow missed it yesterday), and part three will be released tomorrow.

So if you don’t see the category you entered into here, don’t fret! You’ll be able to view part three in just 24 hours.

This brand new awards programme will recognise and celebrate the achievements of the companies, and people, that make the Aussie travel industry so amazing, and we’re getting extra excited for the event.

Not only because it’s a great night out with your industry pals, but because it’s set to be the best end-of-year party the industry has ever seen.

There are some shiny trophies up for grabs and one massive Grand Prix Award for the most impressive entry overall – and we couldn’t be more excited to recognise the industry’s achievements over the year. 35 categories cover the full gamut of the industry, with categories (like innovation) that no other awards have.

You can read more about the awards right here, but for now, here’s what you’ve all been waiting for! Part two of the 2018 Australian Travel Awards shortlist includes 12 categories, so check back tomorrow for more.

For those who made the shortlist, double check your company name is correct before you pop the champagne and dance for joy. No one wants a trophy with the wrong spelling on it. So for any and all changes, email Nicolle@travelweekly.com.au ASAP. And by ASAP, we mean by November 1.

Oh, and if you’re one of the lucky few on this list, you must buy a ticket to the event. And you’ll only be able to get early bird tickets until next week! So head here to grab those while you still can.

The Australian Travel Awards will be held on November 30 at Paddington Town Hall, Sydney. Find all other info on the website here.
