Behind the Scenes of the LCD Awards 2025: A Night to Remember in Paris

On May 17, 2025, the first edition of the LCD Awards took place at the extraordinary Musée des Arts Forains in Paris — and what a night it was!

Beneath the glowing chandeliers of this magical venue, surrounded by whimsical fairground attractions and theatrical decor, the world of short-term rentals gathered to celebrate innovation, hospitality excellence, and the people shaping the future of our industry.

An Unforgettable Setting for a Growing Industry

Hosting the awards in this unique and historical location sent a powerful message: short-term rental professionals deserve recognition and glamour on par with any other sector. From the red carpet to the vintage carousels, everything was designed to showcase the passion and creativity that drive our community.

Yaago Takes the Stage

As official sponsor of the “Luxury Rental” category, Yaago was honored to present this prestigious award and be a part of such a momentous occasion. We were especially proud to see so many Yaago clients among the finalists — a reflection of the exceptional quality and care they bring to their guest experiences.

But the evening didn’t stop there…

A Moment of Truth and Emotion

One of the most moving moments of the night came when Isabel, our incredible Customer Success Manager, took the stage. With sincerity, poise, and warmth, she delivered a speech that resonated far beyond the venue. Her words reminded us all of what we strive for: an industry centered on people, relationships, and a relentless pursuit of service excellence.

More Than an Event — A Community in Motion

The LCD Awards are more than just trophies. They are the symbol of a vibrant, united, and forward-thinking industry, where innovation and empathy go hand in hand. The event brought together agencies, tech providers, hosts, and partners who all share one common vision: shaping the future of short-term rentals, together.
