London’s tourism businesses have less than two weeks left to complete their entries, which close on 20 August. The awards, which are free to enter, have 14 categories to showcase innovation in marketing, new product development and excellence in customer care, or action taken to reduce carbon footprint.The awards span a whole range of industry services including: accommodation providers, restaurants, events organisers and attractions. The deadline for the awards is 5pm on 20 August.
The Visit London Awards, are running in association with the Enjoy England Awards for Excellence and are the highlight of the tourism calendar which recognise and reward excellence in London tourism.
The 2008 awards include categories such as Best Business Venue and Best Business Event of the Year. There are also more tourism-related awards such as Best Budget Accommodation, Best Tourism Experience and the highly coveted Visitor Attraction of the Year award. Businesses can enter as many categories as they feel relevant.
A large panel of London experts have been invited to judge the awards (I was a judge last year - still waiting for the call!) with each entry having up to three awards per category: Gold, Silver or Bronze. A complete list of award categories and entry requirements can be found on Visit London's website.
The winners will be announced at an Awards Ceremony taking place on Thursday 27 November at one of London’s most iconic venues the Royal Albert Hall.
In the spirit of full disclosure, I'm the contributing editor for Visit London's new Event organisers website.
