Now in its third year, the Showing Council/Showing World Show Personality of the Year Awards have become an industry standard, and offer a unique opportunity for showing enthusiasts to honour those who they feel are deserving of a prestigious Show Personality of the Year Award.
From the many nominations received a distinguished panel of five experts have made some tough decisions to select the six finalists in each category, which are now forward to the public vote. The winners will be presented at the Awards Ceremony, which this year will be a buffet reception to be hosted at a new venue, the Hilton Birmingham Metropole Hotel NEC on the evening of Tuesday 2nd October.
As well as a new venue, this year also sees the introduction of a Runner up Award, so it’s now all down to the public vote, so to make sure you have your say visit www.showingawards.co.uk to find out all about the finalists and cast your vote!
‘It’s great to see how the Show Personality of the Year Awards have established themselves as part of the Showing Calendar ‘ said The Showing Council Chairman Mr David Ingle ‘ it’s important that people are recognised for their achievements and The Showing Council would encourage everyone to go and cast their vote’.
