Films as Bridges Between Cultures

Within the global context of ITB, The Golden City Gate provides a unique platform to push the boundaries of creative tourism communication. Films have a special ability to bridge cultures and foster understanding of diverse perspectives. The submitted works not only raise awareness of global issues but also strengthen intercultural dialogue.

Special Awards for Outstanding Achievements

As part of the awards ceremony, the longstanding media work of the Cologne Pride movement was honored with a Special Award.

The annual honorary award was presented this year to Westdeutscher Rundfunk (WDR) in recognition of 20 years of the travel magazine “WUNDERSCHÖN.” With its engaging presenters, the program takes viewers on inspiring journeys through different countries and cultures, making a valuable contribution to Germany’s travel culture.

In the past, notable personalities have been honored for their lifetime achievements, including Ray Bloom (IMAX) in 2018 and Ali Ihsan Barut in 2022 for his exceptional dedication to the hospitality industry.
