Having run the prestigious Junior Design Awards for 15 years, we know our awards programme is a tried and trusted vehicle for championing premium brands and businesses, both big and small. We’re proud to say our winners’ logos are internationally recognised as a badge of excellence and we’re excited to extend this recognition to family travel brands and experiences.
We are thrilled to introduce the Junior Travel Awards – a brand new awards programme for 2026, created to hone the focus on family travel, while broadening the range of experiences, adventures, resorts and brands we can reward for excellence in their field. This means we can open up the awards to family days out, a broader variety of holiday types and trips as well as those all important kids’ clubs and family facilities that really make a difference.
We know the Junior Travel Awards – and our new Junior Travel Awards logo – will really stand out in the crowded luxury holiday space and help parents choose which experiences to invest their quality-time and money in.
