Florida’s reputation as the world’s premier vacation destination would not be possible without the vision and dedication of a select group of tourism industry innovators. Each year, these individuals are honored by VISIT FLORIDA with induction into the Florida Tourism Hall of Fame, which was inaugurated in 2001.

Qualified nominees for the Florida Tourism Hall of Fame are contemporary or historic figures whose work and achievements within Florida tourism have made a positive and significant impact on the state’s economy and residents. Nominees must have served the Florida tourism industry for at least 10 years. Self-nominations will not be accepted. 

Nominee applications must be completed and received by April 10.
