The worldwide voting window for the Caribbean, North, Central and South America is now open!

Industry insiders, consumers and stakeholders from around the world are invited to cast their votes for the organisations in these regions that they consider the very best in the business, ahead of the WTA Latin America Ceremony and the WTA Caribbean & North America Gala Ceremony.

Located on Mexico's breathtakingly beautiful Pacific Coast, the glittering, all-inclusive Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya will host WTA’s much anticipated Latin America Ceremony 2017 on 9th September 2017. Meanwhile the Caribbean & North America Gala Ceremony will take place at Beaches Turks & Caicos Resort Villages & Spa on Saturday 16th September 2017. This will be the fifth time World Travel Awards has visited Turks & Caicos following glittering ceremonies at Beaches Turks & Caicos Resort Villages & Spa back in 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2012.

WTA President Graham Cooke said: "Preparations for the Grand Tour 2017 are now well underway and we are looking forward to our time in Mexico and Turks & Caicos, with the all-inclusive Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya and Beaches Turks & Caicos Resort Villages & Spa respectively."

"With voting open for both ceremonies, now is the time to make your voice heard. Recognition by WTA is rightly seen as the highest accolade in the industry, and your vote can really make a difference."

"Register for your chance to vote now."
