ANTIGUA AND BARBUDA BLACK PINEAPPLE AWARDS LAUNCHED TO CELEBRATE TOP-PRODUCING TRAVEL PROFESSIONALS
The first-ever Antigua and Barbuda Black Pineapple Awards—a spectacular initiative that honours and celebrates the outstanding achievements of hard-working travel agents from around the world is set to take place from December 6th to 8th, 2024, in Antigua and Barbuda. The event, organized by the Antigua and Barbuda Ministry of Tourism and the Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority, will bring together over 100 of the destination’s top-producing travel professionals for an exclusive celebration in the stunning twin-island paradise.
Named after the unique and delicious Antigua Black Pineapple—Antigua’s most famous and sweetest fruit, found only on this stunning Caribbean Island, these awards symbolise the country’s commitment to excellence, luxury, and the recognition of the pivotal role travel agents play in promoting Antigua and Barbuda as a must-visit destination.
The Hon. Charles Fernandez, Minister of Tourism for Antigua and Barbuda said, "We are incredibly proud to host the inaugural Antigua and Barbuda Black Pineapple Awards this December. The Awards are not just another industry event; they are a prestigious celebration of the incredible work done by our global travel partners. It will be the perfect way to say a heartfelt thank you to the agents who are the backbone of our industry. I can't wait to welcome and celebrate with the one hundred outstanding agents here in Antigua and Barbuda as we honour their dedication and commitment.”
