Finalists for the TTG Luxury Travel Awards 2026 have been revealed, as the sector’s most coveted ceremony gets ready to take over London’s most exciting new luxury hotel.

The awards, hosted in association with Silversea, will come to The Chancery Rosewood on 6 March, with nine accolades up for grabs for luxury suppliers, eight awards for luxury travel designers and three special awards for Luxury Travel Workplace of the Year, Sustainability Hero of the Year and Contribution to Luxury Travel.

Amongst those shortlisted for supplier awards, Abercrombie Kent and Seabourn are in the running for three categories each, while across the travel designer categories, Wanderlux’s Rebecca Puttock is in the running for three awards, with Travel Counsellors’ Dan Hyams and Ashley and Matt Philips at Travel Chaps with two nominations each.

“Silversea is proud to be a headline sponsor of the TTG Luxury Travel Awards for the fourth year running and we look forward to seeing many fantastic suppliers and partners at the 2026 event,” said Silversea’s Connie Georgiou, sales director UK Ireland, Middle East, and Africa.

“The TTG Luxury Travel Awards are now an integral part of the travel industry, particularly from a cruise perspective, and mirror the expansion of the luxury segment, which has grown by 300% since 2010 [CLIA, 2025]. For Silversea, experiential luxury is our domain, so we are extremely pleased to see the increased travel agent focus going forward and the incredible contribution from TTG Media and the travel industry in creating these awards,” Georgiou added.

Amazing new venue

All shortlisted companies will be vying for victory in the glamorous ballroom at The Chancery Rosewood, which only opened its doors in September in Mayfair, with more than 350 luxury travel professionals expected to attend the ever-popular Friday lunchtime event.

Guests will be welcomed at the hotel to a drinks reception held with Rosewood, while pre-ceremony entertainment will be an uplifting performance by House Gospel Choir, an electrifying experience that never fails to get audiences singing and dancing along.

For the first time in 2026, Explora Journeys will host the Winners’ Lunch with all successful travel designers who triumph on the day invited to gather at a top London restaurant for the exclusive celebration in the spring.

“I am tremendously proud of our flagship luxury awards event and what we have achieved as we head into the eighth outing of this very special event,” said TTG Media’s head of luxury April Hutchinson. “Since we started, the industry has consistently rated the awards highly – from the robust nature of the entry and judging process, to the calibre of finalists and the range of guests who attend the event. Congratulations to all our finalists and we cannot wait to celebrate in such a magnificent venue at The Chancery Rosewood.”
