Scenic has rolled out the red carpet for its top-performing travel partners, celebrating standout sales and service at its annual Night of Stars. The 2026 event also kicked off the company’s 40th anniversary as an Australian-founded brand.
The night brought together leading travel advisors and agencies from Australia and New Zealand, with Scenic using it to recognise the trade partners who have helped drive its luxury river cruises, yacht cruises, and land journeys.
High achievers were honoured across categories including revenue growth, product mix and commitment to client service.
The 2025 qualifying year saw a record number of agencies reach Diamond status with more than $1 million in sales. In addition, two winning agencies secured places on the inaugural Scenic Ikon ultra-luxury yacht sailing, while another two earned an Emerald Cruises luxury yacht voyage.
Scenic said the awards reflect the strength of its trade relationships and the shared focus on growing premium travel experiences across the region.
