Since its inception, the Travel Noire Awards have symbolized excellence in the travel industry. Founded to highlight and celebrate the diversity and richness of global travel experiences, they have become a significant marker of quality and inspiration. The awards recognize outstanding destinations and experiences while spotlighting Black-owned businesses and creatives making waves in the travel world.
With a total of fifty-five nominees, the 2024 Travel Noire Awards will honor five winners in eleven categories. The winners will be announced on September 26, 2024. Nominees were selected by a team of seasoned editors and social media experts at Travel Noire after surveying the community, keeping tabs on user interests, and utilizing a mix of data and human screening. We zeroed in on the stories on our site that you read most often after reviewing hundreds of your social media likes, shares, and posts.
Our team has also sifted through hotel reviews and reader input, eliminating the bad to bring you the good. The purpose of these awards is not only to showcase the most popular people and places that Travel Noire readers have interacted with but also to bring underrepresented demographics and up-and-coming individuals to light.
At Travel Noire, we know that Black people travel enthusiastically around the world. The excitement of showcasing these experiences and giving readers the power to nominate their favorites is what the Travel Noire Awards are all about.
