With nominations for the Africa MICE Awards 2026 officially closing on 31 July 2026, the Awards programme enters an important new phase—the Independent Jury Evaluation.
This stage brings together an independent panel of respected industry experts who will review all eligible nominations against the published award criteria. The jury process is designed to ensure that the Awards remain credible, transparent and reflective of excellence across Africa's Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions (MICE) industry.
Following the jury evaluation, the shortlisted nominees will be officially announced before progressing to the public voting phase. Voting will provide industry stakeholders, clients, partners and the wider public with an opportunity to support the finalists across the various award categories.
Celebrating Excellence Across Africa
The Africa MICE Awards celebrate excellence across destinations, convention centers, hotels, airlines, event organizers, suppliers, associations, convention bureaus and outstanding industry professionals whose contributions continue to advance Africa's business events ecosystem.
The Journey to the Gala
The journey will culminate at the prestigious Africa MICE Awards Gala, taking place during the Africa MICE Summit & Awards 2026 on 2nd October 2026 in Mombasa, Kenya.
As anticipation builds, we encourage the industry to stay connected for the announcement of the finalists and the opening of public voting. Every nomination represents a story of innovation, resilience and excellence, and soon, Africa will have the opportunity to celebrate its very best.
