Judging for the Tourism Awards Takes Place

This week a group of independent judges have been hard at work, deliberating, discussing and debating who should win this year’s Tourism Awards.

The awards, which were due to take place at Liverpool Cathedral back in May, are now going virtual and will be streamed live from the MSP Studio on YouTube on Tuesday 10th November at 7pm. The awards look back to 2019 and will recognise and reward those businesses who stand out and deliver excellence across all areas of their business.

Carolyn Knott, Head of Partnerships at Growth Platform said:

“The judging process is very robust and thorough and this week we have convened the judges in groups online to determine who should be the worthy winners. We look forward to celebrating on the night with all of the shortlisted businesses”
