Greetings!
We have duly noted that the Honourable Minister will unfortunately be
unable to attend the event due to prior commitments.
We are pleased to confirm that Estonia has been confirmed as “Destination
of the Year - Smart Tourism” at the PATWA International Travel Awards
2027.
The award will be formally presented during the PATWA International
Travel Awards ceremony at ITB Berlin 2027, on Wednesday, March 17th, 2027,
from 2:30 pm to 5:00 pm.
May we kindly request you to confirm whether Estonia (as a destination)
will be participating in the PATWA International Travel Awards 2027. Upon
confirmation, a representative from the Tourism Board of Estonia may
connect with us to complete the participation formalities, enabling our
team to proceed with the necessary arrangements.
For our 27th edition, we have already received confirmations of
participation from Tourism Ministers and destinations from around the
world, and we would be delighted to welcome Estonia to this distinguished
international gathering.
We look forward to receiving Estonia’s confirmation of participation at
the earliest convenience.
