Travel Alliance Partnership (TAP) is proud to announce it has been honored with two 2025 Davey Awards, recognizing outstanding creative excellence in marketing and communications. The Davey Awards celebrate the best work from boutique agencies, in-house teams, small production companies, and independent creators across a wide range of categories.
TAP was awarded in two categories:
- Gold Award – Consumer Magazine: Haunted History Trail of New York State 2025 Guide
- Silver Award – Integrated Campaign, Travel & Tourism: Visit Syracuse “Simple Wonders” Campaign
“These awards are especially meaningful because they are judged purely on creative merit, without context or case study submissions,” said Nicole Mahoney, CEO of Travel Alliance Partnership. “It’s a powerful reminder that when you start with a solid strategy and a clear vision, the work speaks for itself.”
Both campaigns highlight TAP’s passion for helping small and mid-sized destinations grow their visibility and visitor engagement through authentic storytelling and collaborative partnerships.
The Haunted History Trail of New York State project showcases over 80 paranormal attractions statewide, including ghost hunts, spiritualism experiences, and haunted dining adventures brought to life through an immersive, visually compelling print guide. Creative design was led by Matt Steinberg of Quackenstein Graphic Design Co.
Visit Syracuse’s Simple Wonders campaign invited travelers to rediscover the natural beauty and cultural wonders of Central New York through dynamic video storytelling, engaging landing page copy, digital advertising, and interactive technology. The campaign was developed in collaboration with VDXtv and STQRY.
The Davey Awards are sanctioned and reviewed by the Academy of Interactive and Visual Arts (AIVA), an assembly of over 500 leading creatives from acclaimed brands, institutions, and agencies.
