Lancashire’s tourism and hospitality sector came together for an unforgettable night, celebrating talent, resilience, and creativity that make the county shine.
For the third year running, Gaynor had the honour of serving as a judge, witnessing first-hand the passion, dedication, and innovation that happen behind the scenes in Lancashire. As the county she calls home, it was particularly special to see businesses across Lancashire thriving and pushing the boundaries of excellence.
The awards were hosted in the iconic Winter Gardens, Blackpool, with BBC Radio Lancashire’s Mike Stevens guiding the evening. The venue provided a stunning backdrop, perfectly capturing the glamour and excitement of the night.

Marketing Lancashire chose to partner with the industry charity Hospitality Action to raise funds and drive awareness. Our Managing Director, Gaynor, sits on the Northern board of Hospitality Action, and was delighted to once again work with the team to highlight the charity.
Many of the award winners will now go on to represent Lancashire at the national VisitEngland Awards for Excellence- a well-deserved recognition of their hard work and creativity. Congratulations to all the winners and shortlisted finalists whose commitment continues to make Lancashire shine on the national stage.
