We were delighted to attend the Worldchoice Conference 2025 at the beautiful Johnstown Estate in Enfield, in partnership with TravelBiz. The event brought together leading voices from across the travel industry, celebrating growth, innovation and collaboration under this year’s theme, Future Horizons: Growth and Opportunities.

The conference explored emerging trends in travel, the growing influence of technology and AI, and the value of partnership in shaping the future of the industry.

As the evening progressed, the focus shifted to recognition and celebration at the annual awards dinner. Among the standout winners were Joanne Conlan of Centre Travel Dundalk, who received the Shining Star Award; Navan Travel, named Agent of the Year; O’Donohoe Travel, awarded Boutique Agent of the Year; Bookabed / TBO, crowned Trade Partner of the Year; and Emirates, honoured as Airline Partner of the Year. The prestigious Travel Industry Recognition Award was presented to Frances Grogan and Cormac Meehan for their outstanding contribution to Irish travel.


We were proud to attend in partnership with TravelBiz and travelfinders, marking the official launch of our collaboration. It’s an exciting step forward, and we look forward to building on this partnership as we continue to highlight the best of Ireland’s travel industry together.
