Round one runs from 1 November to 14 February: anyone can nominate and the public votes. The panel screens every eligible nominee and picks about five finalists per award; round one votes count for 30% of that shortlisting score and the panel's assessment of impact for 70%. The finals run from 22 February to 7 March, with one verified vote per email per award, and each finalist's final score is 60% panel and 40% finals public vote. The People's Passport is decided 100% by the public vote. The Gold Passport and The Icon Award are chosen by the full panel alone and cannot be entered directly.
Their own page, an official Nominated badge and share cards for Instagram and TikTok, a shot at the Stamped 100, and if they win, the Gold Passport trophy: winners are announced on 15 March 2027 and the trophy is posted to every winner.
No. One vote per email per award, and every vote is confirmed by email before it counts. Sponsors never touch the result.

The Gold PassportTHE PANEL'S TOP HONOUR
Half real data, thirty percent panel, twenty percent you. Stamp creators up, knock them down, watch the board move every week. It locks and is published with the winners on 15 March.
Not in a brochure, not in a search box. Someone watches a creator walk a street, board a flight, open a hotel room door, and books it. The industry knows this. Its awards calendar pretends otherwise. The Passport Awards claims that stage.
The most trusted travel recommendations on earth now come from people filming on phones, not from glossy pages. The audience followed them. The bookings followed the audience.
Hotels have awards. Airlines have awards. Journalists have awards. The creators actually driving decisions have never had a credible global stage. Until now.
Winners are announced the night before ITB Berlin opens, when the world's travel trade press, boards and brands are gathering. Online, so every creator everywhere can watch.
