ANZ Fiji Excellence in Tourism Awards (FETA) today announced the 2024 season launch at Coffee Hub to kickstart preparations for the tourism industry’s premium and highly anticipated awards.
FETA Chair Debra Sadranu said the new season will once again provide an exciting opportunity for individuals and organisations in the tourism industry with a focus on diversity and inclusivity for all stakeholders.
FETA also today announced the induction of Tewaka, Tourism Services & Transport Operator into the FETA Hall of Fame joining the ranks of tourism icons Vatuvara Private Islands, Likuliku Island Resort, Outrigger Fiji Beach Resort and Rosie Holidays in the prestigious recognition.

Sadranu also welcomed four new sponsors to the event’s esteemed roll call of supporters; Gold Sponsors Fiji Airports, Harry Harry Fiji, Encore ANZPAC and Silver Sponsor Havas Host.

“The board is thrilled to have the support of so many respected industry leaders, without whom this event would not be possible,” says Sadranu. “This level of commitment is a testament to the vivacity of Fiji’s tourism industry and the celebration of all our stakeholders’ contribution to destination Fiji”.
The FETA action team is working towards the preparation of online registration for the 2024 season and the team will be reaching out to tourism stakeholders through various platforms to encourage them to participate and register during this period.
Last year’s awards had 20 categories presented together with the prestigious Lifetime Achievement and Visionary Award at the grand gala dinner event held in February this year.
FETA will be making further announcements leading up to the awards in the coming weeks.
