Envoyage has revealed Cape Town, South Africa, as the location for its 2025 Icons event.
Flight Centre Travel Group’s independent brand is so excited about the 2025 venue, that it has announced it before this year’s event has even occurred.
Taking place from 8 to 11 September, Icons celebrates the brand’s top 50 global achievers – and this year, the event will be held at the five-star 12 Apostles hotel.
During the celebration – the third Icons event – lucky attendees will be treated to a range of luxury and adventure experiences in Cape Town and nearby wine regions.
Icons 2025 will also take place just before Envoyage’s Worldwide 2025 event in South Africa’s Sun City, allowing participants to make the most of their time in the country by attending both events back-to-back.
Global Managing Director FCTG Luxury and Independent Brands Danielle Galloway said the itinerary for 2025 “is shaping up to be unmissable”, following events in Europe (2023) and the Maldives (2024).
“Cape Town is the perfect backdrop for Icons, and being able to host the event for a third consecutive year truly highlights the remarkable achievements of our members,” she remarked.
“Our members run incredible travel businesses, delivering exceptional service to their customers around the world. Each year, we hope to inspire and reward our highest-performing members with the opportunity to attend Icons: an exclusive four-night event in a stunning locale. Icons is truly the pinnacle of reward and recognition within the Envoyage network.
“Icons also provides a wonderful opportunity for our global members to engage with each other and a select group of event partners. The event fosters a sense of community where they can connect, collaborate and share their journeys as travel entrepreneurs.”
Sportslink Travel CEO and Founder Paul Kelly said qualifying for Icons 2025 would motivate his team this year.
“South Africa has always been a dream destination for me, and the opportunity to experience it at Icons 2025 is beyond exciting,” said Kelly, an Icons 2023 attendee.
“We’re more motivated than ever to ensure we qualify and get to share this extraordinary adventure with the Envoyage community.”
The 2024 Icons event will take place in the Maldives. In July, Envoyage revealed the lucky top performers heading to the island nation for the celebration.
The first Icons event took place on board a Uniworld river cruise in Budapest, Hungary.
Earlier this year, Envoyage announced South Africa as the destination for its 2025 Worldwide event, following the inaugural edition in Santiago, Chile, in May 2024.
