The Isle of Man has been nominated for ‘Most Desirable Island in Europe’ in the 2024 Wanderlust Reader Travel Awards.
Wanderlust Magazine is a leading travel publication renowned for its in-depth travel guides, expert advice, and inspiring features on destinations worldwide. Established in 1993, Wanderlust has become a trusted resource for passionate travellers. It is now the most-read UK travel magazine with the highest average circulation across print and digital and continues to pioneer coverage of authentic, responsible, and sustainable travel.
Now in its 23rd year, the Wanderlust Reader Travel Awards celebrates the best in travel and will spotlight the industry’s most desirable destinations, tour operators and travel brands. This year’s awards will see the Isle of Man competing against other islands across the UK and Europe, including Gran Canaria, Jersey, Madeira, Orkney, and Sicily. Over 91,000 readers voted last year, and it is expected that over 100,000 votes will be cast for the 2024 awards.
Melanie Allen, Director of Marketing and Communications for Visit Isle of Man commented, “The Isle of Man’s nomination in such a prestigious travel magazine as Wanderlust is a testament to the hard work and dedication of all those involved in the Island’s visitor community and the warm hospitality of our local community. This is the first time the Isle of Man has been nominated for such an award, and to be so in the ‘Most Desirable Island in Europe’ category helps to raise the profile of the Island and its unique offering for visitors.
“Whether you’ve visited once or a hundred times, we know the Island has made a lasting impression and we encourage all fans of the Isle of Man to cast their votes and support this exciting recognition. We also ask our wonderful local community and industry partners to share the voting link with their friends, family, customers and anyone else that’s visited the Isle of Man.”
Voting for the 2024 Wanderlust Reader Travel Awards is now open. Voting closes on 18 October, and the winners will be announced at a gala ceremony at the Tate Modern in London later this year.
