The awards ceremony will take place under the theme: Back to the Roots, at the Soweto Theatre in Soweto. The awards are a celebration of Soweto-based tourism businesses working tirelessly to promote Soweto as a preferred tourist destination. Soweto Tourism Awards are Soweto’s premier tourism event established to pay tribute to the enormous contribution made by the Soweto Tourism operators and service providers to the tourism industry and the improvement to the economy of Soweto and the country,- as well as to encourage excellence within the industry.

The awards cover 20 categories ranging from Accommodation, Arts and Craft, Camping, Restaurants, Tourist Guide, Tour Operator, Tourism Experience, Restaurant, Experiences, Attractions, Urban Lifestyle and Youth in Tourism. and more. Members of the public and businesses operating in this space were invited through social media platforms and tourism WhatsApp groups,, to nominate businesses that fall into these categories. This process was followed by inviting a public voting process. The awards recognize growth in tourism products and are based on businesses that are compliant, businesses that continually innovate their offering and contribute greatly to their communities. The goal is to honour and award Soweto-based tourism businesses and business owners who dedicate themselves to making Soweto the top Township Tourist Destination in South Africa.
