Awards & Honorees

The Flagler Awards

Named for the vision, perseverance, imagination and commitment of Henry Flagler, the Flagler Awards were established by the Florida Commission on Tourism to recognize outstanding tourism marketing in Florida. Every year, the Flagler Awards honor many of the countless individuals and organizations that help maintain and improve Florida’s position as one of the world’s most popular travel destinations. It is a small way to acknowledge the tireless efforts of those who use their skill, commitment, resourcefulness, creativity and innovative spirit in marketing Florida to the world, and in doing so help ensure the continued success of our tourism industry.
