Visit London is celebrating 2 wins at this year's IGLTA (International Gay and Lesbian Travel Association) Awards.
London's official visitor organisation picked up awards for Best Brochure/Collateral and Best Advertisement.
The awards were voted for by the membership of IGLTA which represents the global LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) travel and marketing community.
The winning brochure is Visit London's Official Gay and Lesbian Guide to the Capital, which has been widely distributed across gay venues and pride events both in the UK and overseas, including the USA and Germany, and online.
The print advertisement is for the "Do London Like a Local" campaign which encouraged visitors to see parts of the capital popular with Londoners and less well known to tourists. It also directs consumers to www.visitlondon.com/rainbow which contains further information about LGBT London.
Martine Ainsworth-Wells, Marketing Director at Visit London, who was at the awards ceremony in Las Vegas said:
"I'm delighted that Visit London's hard work promoting London to the LGBT travel market has been recognised with these awards. London is a fantastic destination for gay and lesbian travellers and our award-winning guides and campaigns help them to get the most out of the capital."
