The Travel and Tourism Marketing Association (TTMA) invites you to join us for the Annual AKM Awards Luncheon on Wednesday, October 22, 2025, at the historic Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel.

 

Each year, TTMA brings together Southern California’s travel and tourism community to honor the people and institutions that have made a lasting impact on our industry. The Anastasia K. Mann (AKM) Leadership Award, established in 2002 and named after industry icon Anastasia K. Mann, recognizes trailblazers whose leadership and dedication have advanced the promotion of travel and tourism. The TTMA Landmark Award, established in 2004, honors venues or facilities that have contributed significantly to regional tourism and elevated Los Angeles and Orange County as world-class destinations.

 

This year, TTMA is proud to recognize Patti MacJennett, retiring after 30 years with the Los Angeles Tourism & Convention Board, as the recipient of the 2025 AKM Leadership Award. We are equally honored to present the 2025 TTMA Landmark Award to the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, a historic and iconic property that continues to define the spirit of Los Angeles as a premier global destination.

 

The luncheon will feature a plated meal, vibrant networking opportunities, and TTMA’s signature Silent Auction, with proceeds benefiting the TTMA/CSUN Scholarship fund. With more than 150 of Southern California’s leading travel and tourism professionals in attendance, the event is both a celebration and an opportunity to connect with industry leaders.
