For the fifth consecutive year, the visit.brussels Awards Ceremony would like to honour Brussels’ best tourist initiatives; the ones that consistently help to shape an ever more welcoming image of the capital, and play an active role in making it a world famous destination.
The visit.brussels Awards are launching the call for applications today: original achievements, projects, actions and concepts are invited to sign up in the different categories described on the website.
To start with, members of the public will choose the three best projects in each category.
