FLY ME TO THE MOON
“Fly me to the moon”, the famous Frank Sinatra song was the slogan our events team selected for an incentive trip in the coastal city of Alicante (Spain). The slogan reflected the message our client wanted to convey to recognize individual accomplishments and celebrate the collective journey of the organization towards greater heights. They were the stars of an event that rewarded top performers arriving from 15 European countries. From sailing the Mediterranean to cooking paella and celebrating under the stars, attendees enjoyed a full program of activities meticulously planned.
The excitement began the moment attendees arrived at Alicante-Elche Airport and were greeted by the CWT M&E dedicated team ready to whisk them away to the 5-star venue. Each guest downloaded a sleek smartphone app designed to be their personal concierge throughout the trip. This app was a gateway to a seamless experience from booking activities during the five-day event to accessing flight details. 
The right venue is key to the success of any event. For this trip, our guests enjoyed full use of the hotel-spa with its tropical gardens and more than 3,000 species of plants brought from Asia, seven spectacular swimming pools and a Thai Spa.
The highlight of the trip was undoubtedly the gala dinner with the awards ceremony and after-party rock concert. Guests dressed up to celebrate the achievements of the year and enter a venue transformed into an elegant film studio resembling the golden years of Hollywood. The 180 winners took to the stage to be recognized with the ceremony strategically designed to keep energy at the forefront.  
A team of 25 specialists worked tirelessly to ensure every detail was perfect, from the lighting to the immersive sound system. The stage was at the center with a giant square screen reflecting what was happening from all angles. Each team was called to the podium to receive their award with entertaining videos and interactive elements in between each award to keep engagement high.
Attendees chose from a selection of morning activities via the app, with many opting for a sailing experience. An impressive yacht, manned by expert sailors, set off from the Alicante Marina, offering a perfect blend of adventure and relaxation. The crystal-clear waters and stunning coastline provided a picturesque backdrop for a day of nautical fun. 
Spain is renowned for its cuisine and the trip was a gastronomic delight. Guests gathered for an exclusive paella-making class with local chefs sharing the secrets of Spain’s national dish. The hands-on experience was both educational and entertaining, culminating in a feast of their own creations paired with exquisite Spanish wines.
