Everything is ready for the seventh edition of the Food and Travel Italia Awards , the Italian edition of the first international magazine, distributed in 18 countries, which deals with food and wine, gourmet travel and high-profile tourism , which will stop on the island in the suggestive setting of the Forte Village Resort this evening, Thursday 10 October, at 6.30 pm.
The aim of the 2024 edition is to demonstrate that food and wine culture can be combined with glamour, in an event that celebrates the historical prestige of publishing with a “contemporary” and captivating look.
"It will be an edition in which I would like us all to go back to being a little childish, brave and contemptuous of danger - comments the patron of Food and Travel Italia, Pamela Raeli - The Award is conceived as a format that valorizes Food, Wine, Tourism, Entrepreneurship and Territorial Culture".
The winners of the seventh edition will be announced this evening during the gala evening of the event, hosted by Pamela Raeli, the multifaceted Filippo Polidori and the Director of Food and Travel Italia Fabrizio Imas.
The awards to be given cover all areas of catering, hospitality, tourism, luxury and entrepreneurship.
Awards will be given not only to products, but also to organizations of excellence, in the categories of wine, location and destination of the year.
And, as always, the Special Awards given by the Food and Travel board will be assigned to professionals and personalities who have given particular prestige to the sectors they belong to both in Italy and abroad.
The guests of the event are prestigious and, as per tradition, they will remain secret until the beginning of the event.
“Remember to always dare”, a phrase uttered by the poet and prophet Gabriele D'Annunzio, is the theme of this seventh edition of the 2024 Awards which in recent years has toured the most prestigious tourist locations on the Peninsula.
«A war cry that the poet coined on the occasion of the Buccari Prank, a memorable military undertaking in which he himself took part - explains Pamela Raeli - Despite the inconclusive outcome from a military point of view (the consequences on the Austro-Hungarian fleet were limited, one of the Italian steamships was damaged), the Buccari Prank had the merit of raising the morale of the Italian Navy and Army».
