Malta’s tourism prowess continues to capture attention internationally, as VisitMalta, through its Digital Unit, has been awarded Gold in the ‘Destinations’ category at the 2025 Travel Weekly Magellan Awards, marking the second consecutive year the destination has claimed this top honour.

The award recognises the ‘Explore more ___’ video branding and advertising campaign, which beautifully showcases everything the Maltese Islands have to offer. VisitMalta also earned recognition for its ‘Best Bets 2025’ campaign in collaboration with TravelZoo, highlighting Malta as one of nine key destinations featured by the travel publisher.

Hosted by Travel Weekly, a leading North American travel trade publication, the Magellan Awards celebrate the very best in the global travel industry – from tourism campaigns and destinations to hospitality and cruise lines. Entries are judged by an exclusive panel of industry experts, making this accolade an honour indeed!

Congratulations to VisitMalta!
