The winners of the 53rd annual Adrian Awards have been announced. And by the looks of things, H|L and the Missouri Division of Tourism will need to bring an extra bag to the awards gala in New York on February 1.

Overall, fifteen awards will make the trip to Missouri, including three golds (those’re the best ones) for the “Stay Close” campaign. One is for the campaign as a whole. The other two are for web banners from the campaign and a trip planning microsite: visitmo.com/ideas.

The Adrian Awards is the largest and most prestigious travel marketing competition in the world. Their words, not ours.
