FETA 17 March 2021 – The ANZ Fiji Excellence in Tourism Awards (FETA) will be shown live for the first time in its history to allow the tourism industry and the public to view the event.
FETA Co-Chair Olivia Mavoa said the trustees have decided to Livestream on social media platform, Facebook to be able to reach audiences who will not be able to attend this Friday’s awards function.
“The trustees of the ANZ Fiji Excellence in Tourism Awards are pleased to announce that this Friday’s event will be live-streamed on the FETA Facebook page. Unlike previous years, this year the event is being hosted by invitation only. We would like to reach our tourism family and friends who will not be able to attend but can now watch it for free on our Facebook page,” Ms. Mavoa said.
“All our winners of the 13 categories and our Lifetime Achievement and Visionary Awards winners will be recognised in this special event that we had to cancel last year due to COVID-19. The pandemic has had a prolonged impact on tourism affecting everyone that has been directly or indirectly involved in this sector. As a sign of encouragement and hope, we will continue to recognise excellence in Fiji Tourism.”
Prime Minister Hon. Voreqe Bainimarama will be the chief guest at the 23rd annual ANZ Fiji Excellence in Tourism Awards.
“This event will recognise winners of the 2019 awards season with our chief guest presenting the main awards, the prestigious Lifetime Achievement and Visionary Awards to individuals who have contributed significantly towards the tourism industry. The Hon. Prime Minister will also present a special memorial award for the late Dixon Seeto,” Ms. Mavoa added.
“Tourism is very much alive and operating in this constrained business environment through initiatives like Love Our Locals Fiji. We are all looking forward to borders re-opening and hotels ramping up operations in the near future.”
The ANZ Fiji Excellence in Tourism Awards will be held on Friday, March 19 at the Sofitel Fiji Resort and Spa.
