This annual celebration of excellence in travel writing honours outstanding pieces of content and the efforts made to bring them to life in the mediums of print, broadcast, online, and social media.
Australian media who have attended either GoMedia Canada, Canada Corroboree, or a Canada Day event between 2015 – 2017, who produced travel content about Canada as a result, are eligible to enter.
“I’m looking forward to receiving some outstanding submissions for this year’s Explore Canada Awards of Excellence,” said Pip Macken, Media Director, Destination Canada GSA.
“So many Australian travel writers, photographers, and producers, have visited Canada recently and produced emotive first-hand accounts that reflect their passion for this diverse, naturally beautiful country.”
This year, 11 media awards will be granted to recognise the very best Canadian travel storytelling published in Destination Canada’s international markets (one award per country): Australia, China, France, Germany, India, Japan, Mexico, South Korea, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Canada.
“From urban adventures in cities like Vancouver and Montreal, to ice-climbing in Alberta, and walking with polar bears in Churchill, we’ve seen an abundance of published stories, videos, and images generated by inspired Aussie travel journalists,” said Pip.
“The Explore Canada Awards of Excellence provides a wonderful opportunity to recognise our local talent.”
The winner from each international market will be announced online in September in the lead-up to this year’s GoMedia Canada in Calgary, Aberta.
