Nigeria Tourism Award

The Nigeria Travel Week (NTW) organized by Efetobo Awhana, CEO Avantgarde Tours Limited, is a multi-day tourism annual event platform that drives the Nigeria tourism sector by bringing together buyers, consumers, travel techs, blog tourism/travel service providers, bloggers and the media to network, review and discuss the development of tourism in Nigeria.

The third edition was held on 21th - 23rd November 2019, at Federal Palace Hotel & Casino, Lagos Nigeria, with the theme: “Harnessing the Creative Tourism Potentials of Culture Rich Destinations.” Nigeria Travel Week promotes increased networking and partnerships between the different stakeholders in the travel industry. It creates awareness about the opportunities and potentials in domestic and inbound tourism.

Nigeria Travel Week stokes the yearning for travel to Nigeria from the domestic, African and other foreign source markets. It nurtures a culture of travelling, both domestic and outbound, in Nigerians. It furthermore contributes to the wider campaign for Africans to travel Africa and help fight poverty on the continent.

The activities enjoyed in this edition included the upbeat experience, at Upbeat Centre, a family amusement park; The Travel Roundtable at the Muson Centre; a group tour to choice locations; Nigeria Tourism Awards (The Balearica Awards) at the Federal Palace Hotel, followed by an after-party at the Hard Rock Café and ended with a bang at the Tourism Hangout at La Campagne Tropicana, Lagos.
