We are now open to accept submissions from tourism destinations and businesses that want to wipe the floor with the competition.
After many years analysing tourism trends, the awards at MyTravelresearch.com aim to show tourism destinations that clean, creative, quirky public toilets go a long way to boosting a destination’s image and generating tourism dollars. People stop to spend a penny and end up spending more.
Listen to co-founder Carolyn Childs talk about the Toilet Tourism Awards here:
Categories
The 2018 awards will go to public toilets in the following categories (7):
Best Economic Contributor - for when people stop at a toilet in a destination and stay on to spend more than a penny.
Best Location - where the toilets have views and maybe considered an attraction in themselves.
Best Design - architectural brilliance in toilets, visual design and creativity.
Quirkiest Toilet Experience - relating to local heritage, fun, or otherwise noteworthy.
Best Accessible Toilet - supporting the idea of Tourism for all.
Sanitation Progress - aimed at developing economy destinations that have made big steps in public toilet provision.
Overall Commitment to Toilet Tourism.
