The biggest and the best one yet!

Over 350 people joined the celebrations at the Destination Lincolnshire Tourism Awards on October 21 at The Engine Shed in Lincoln.

The awards, organised by Stonebow Media and MyLocal in partnership with Lincoln College and Destination Lincolnshire, brought together the best in the business and hospitality sector across Greater Lincolnshire.

The winners and finalists across 15 categories had a brilliant night, with delicious dishes featuring local produce from Salted Orange Food Company.

Katrina Burrill, Partnerships Director at Stonebow Media and MyLocal, said: “Many congratulations to all the winners and finalists!

“The atmosphere Friday night was a great celebration of one the sectors that has been hardest hit over the last two years.

“Myself and the whole team at MyLocal are proud to support Lincolnshire businesses that share our same ethos.

“We can’t wait to celebrate with you again next year.”
