Which are the best tourist initiatives in Brussels? Let the public decide.
Starting today and ending on 4 March 2018, the public can vote for the visit.brussels Awards. Everyone is now invited to take part in selecting the best three tourist initiatives in Brussels in each category for 2017 from among 63 nominees.
Once the three finalists in each category have been announced, a jury of professionals from the Brussels tourist scene will select the winners of the 2018 awards. To help them make this sometimes difficult choice, the jury will pay special attention to the impact made by the candidates on tourism in Brussels, their international influence, originality, sustainability and accessibility for people with reduced mobility.
The winners will be announced and receive their awards at the visit.brussels Awards & Networking Night on 29 March 2018.
