ABTA’s UK Tourism and Leisure Committee is delighted to announce the venue for the fifth annual Travel Brit Awards, the only award ceremony exclusively celebrating travel agents selling domestic products. Hosted at Warner Leisure Hotels Grade I listed Thoresby Hall Hotel in Nottinghamshire. The event will take place on Sunday 24 June 2012.

The evening, “A British Affair” will consist of a gala dinner followed by the awards ceremony. Guests will be invited to celebrate the British theme with a red, white and blue dress code. The awards will be preceded by an afternoon of fun filled activities that will enable travel agents to broaden their knowledge of the domestic industry and key sponsors.    

Caroline Brown, chair of UKTLC said: “With the Diamond Jubilee in June and the Olympics and Paralympics in the summer, 2012 is set to be a special year for the UK. We are looking forward to celebrating and recognising retailers who support the domestic market at the awards. The event also offers an opportunity for agents to learn more about the UK and the wide range of commissionable product on offer to their customers.” 

This year’s main sponsors include Bourne Leisure, Shearings Holidays, Superbreak, The Hoseasons Group, Great Rail Journeys, Preston Holidays, Visit England and ABTA.
