A Celebration For The Industry

No one will argue with the assertion that the travel industry in Canada needs a reason to celebrate. Certainly, no on here at Baxter Media will argue with that.

So, while a global pandemic may have prevented an in-person, hugs and cheek-kissing gala, it didn’t prevent Baxter Media from taking the high-tech route and hosting the 2020 Agents’ Choice Awards Virtual Gala – a first for the industry – to celebrate the favourites in the 21st edition of the annual Agents’ Choice Awards Readership Survey.

And by all accounts, it was a great way to pay tribute to those in the travel industry who are truly deserving of tributes.

Now while the required social distancing and rules about group gatherings due to the coronavirus global pandemic may have paused the physical event, the virtual gala – held on Oct. 1 and attracting 700 registered party-makers – had all the glamour and glitz of the real thing.
