EDITOR'S COMMENT
• Following unprecedented interest and demand, we are today announcing an extension to the entries deadline for the 2024 Shortyz Awards - you now have until Wednesday 13 March [23:59 GMT] to complete your no-cost submissions here in any of the 20 categories that are up for grabs.
As well as submitting new entries, you can also revisit entries that you've already submitted and amend them before the final deadline if you wish. Do check out our article on 'How to create a standout Shortyz awards entry' to ensure your company / individual shines out to the judges in the face of stiff competition when the judging period commences later this month.
Once the judging period concludes in early April, we will announce the final shortlists that are based solely on the scores of the judges and how well each entry demonstrates that it fulfils the relevant criteria. We will then begin a voting period for STRz readers and the award winners, to be announced at the in-person awards ceremony on Tuesday 23 April, will be determined by a 50:50 split between judge scores and the public vote.
As we get closer to the big night, we'll be making a number of big announcements so stay tuned across all of our social channels. Tickets are also now on sale - don't miss out on the celebration of the year in the global short-term / vacation rental industry!
