The Victoria Tourism Industry Council (VTIC) is gearing up to celebrate the 2016 RACV Victorian Tourism Awards on Thursday 24 November at The Palladium, Crown. In its 32nd year, the Gala Ceremony is a prestigious night of nights for the tourism and events industry which currently employs 210,000 people, half in regional locations, and generates $21.7 billion per year for the State’s economy. The Awards acknowledge excellence among businesses and outstanding individuals across 30 categories.

The awards program gives operators the opportunity to evaluate their level of expertise and service, pushing for exceptional standards year on year. First-time entrant in 2015, Damian Sandercock of Piper Street Food Co, who won Silver for New Business, commented; “The awards submission process was terrific for making you pull apart your business, revisit your goals and refocus on telling a uniquely Victorian story. Awards like this really help us to leverage that brand further afield.”
