Travel Industry’s Night of Nights Set to Sparkle Thanks to Generous Sponsor Support

With the National Travel Industry Awards (NTIA) shaping as the best in the event’s history, the Australian Travel Industry Association (ATIA) extends its heartfelt thanks to our sponsors without which the awards would not be possible.  

Our sponsors recognise the essential role travel professionals play in supporting Australians and their backing of the NTIA ensures that it continues to be the premier event honouring excellence in the Travel Sector.  

Leading the way in 2025 is Major Sponsor Singapore Airlines who has returned for the fourth consecutive year and paved the way for the increasing success of the event. With Singapore Airline’s backing, the NTIA is generating intense interest this year with a record number of nominations and strong ticket sales ahead of the event.  

The NTIA Gala Dinner & Awards Presentation will be held at The Star, Brisbane on Saturday 18 October. The Beyond Borders summit will be held the previous day on 17 October.  

ATIA would like to thank CVFR Travel Group which has gone all out this year to make sure the NTIA are the most glamourous – from the moment guess arrive at The Star to the last song at the Afterparty.   

ATIA also sincerely thanks Viking for sponsoring the NTIA Finalists Celebration on The Star’s Leisure Deck, the night before the NTIAs.
