We are pleased to announce the finalists in the Destination Lincolnshire Tourism Awards 2022.
With double the number of entries from the 2020 awards, across 15 categories, the judges have been scoring submissions and selecting the finalists from across the county to recognise and celebrate.
None of this would be possible without our partners Lincoln College and Destination Lincolnshire, as well as our sponsors Duncan & Toplis, EV Camel, LNER, Heart of Lincs, Visit Lincolnshire, East Lindsey District Council, insight6, Visual Design & Print and Fizzco.
The next round of judging will be Mystery Shopping taking place between August 15 and September 23. Finalists can find more details on requirements on the Lincolnshire Tourism Awards website.
Katrina Burrill, Partnerships Manager at Stonebow Media, said: “The last two and a half years has been difficult for the whole tourism sector so to see the number of entries this year from such a large number of businesses and read their stories of how they overcame and adapted has been inspiring.
“Stonebow Media are proud to be hosting these awards to celebrate all our finalists successes. The awards showcase the fantastic landscape Lincolnshire has to offer locals and visitors alike.”
Charlotte Goy, Chief Executive of Destination Lincolnshire, said: “A huge, heartfelt congratulations to all the amazing businesses that have made the shortlist of this year’s Destination Lincolnshire Tourism Awards.
“Finally seeing who has been selected by the independent board of judges really hits home just how phenomenal our visitor offering is and how connected it is to the national picture. It’s great to see some familiar faces in there, as well as some businesses that have never before applied to the awards too.
“This year’s judges really had their work cut out for them too, with double the number of entries in comparison to the last Tourism Awards held in 2020. It really goes to show how much passion, dedication and resilience lies in our visitor economy businesses – working on the frontline of post-pandemic recovery and absolutely smashing it, despite the tough times that continue to present themselves.
“The heroic strength that our community of businesses has within the county is something that deserves to proudly be celebrated – and will be – at the October awards ceremony. The next round of judging through mystery shoppers, really will provide all shortlisted businesses priceless feedback – whether they are announced as winners on the night or not. We can’t wait to celebrate with you.”
