Gold List Awards 2016 Announced – Luxury Travel Magazine Issue Out Now

Luxury Travel Magazine

On sale from 21 April, 2016

In the 66th issue of Luxury Travel magazine, we unveil the results of our 12th annual Gold List Awards. Winners in both Australia and overseas are announced across 35 award categories, recognising the best properties, destinations, tour operators, cruise and rail companies, and experiences in luxury travel.

New this year, the magazine has introduced a luxury specialist agent panel. The panellists have nominated their own selections across the categories, given that they are a great independent source of information as they hear regular feedback from their clients. All winners and finalists will be live on our new website under the Gold List section from 21 April at luxurytravelmag.com.au

Also attached with this issue is a Luxury Travel 52-page Gourmet Guide to Dubai mini-magazine which includes interviews with five of Australia's best chefs (Shannon Bennett, George Calombaris, Manu Feildel, Gary Mehigan and Matt Moran) outlining their best foodie tips following a recent trip to Dubai during the Dubai Food Festival. You'll find features on the broad range of dining options in the Emirate, including cafés, fine dining, dining among the dunes, food trucks, food markets and home-grown dining concepts.
