Quebec Tourism Awards 2013

The Grands Prix du tourisme québécois contest is designed to showcase the quality and the importance of the tourist industry in the economy of Québec. It sheds a limelight on top performers in the areas of tourist accommodation, events, agritourism, attractions, services, outdoor activities, adventure and human resources.

The contest recognises innovative practices within the industry for the development of products or services, as well as for marketing and management.

The Grands Prix du tourisme québécois contest can be summed up as follows:

  • There are eighteen (18) categories for each of which a national panel of judges designates Gold, Silver and Bronze prize winners.
  • A national prize is awarded to the person chosen as the "Tourism Personality of the Year".
  • In each category, eight (8) candidates are preselected to compete at the national level.
  • A panel of judges reviews the candidacies at the regional level, and another panel designates the winners at the national level.
  • A gala celebration is held in each participating region during the winter months.
  • The grand winners are crowned at a gala celebration held during the spring.

The winners receive considerable recognition, both with the public at large and with those who work in the tourist industry. The winners can count on substantial coverage by the Québec print media. This visibility is further enhanced by the coverage of the various prize ceremonies by the local, regional and national Québec media.

In addition to the visibility provided by ATR associées du Québec, top honours can be very rewarding for your enterprise!

  • There's the recognition of your good work by your peers at the awards ceremony.
  • Recognition of your achievements by your peers and your clients is further enhanced by the use of the "Grand Prix" logo in your promotional material.

  • It's a real pride booster for your team.
