The Yorkshire Post have recently launched the prestigious brand-new Yorkshire Tourism Awards 2022. The awards will celebrate the very best of our region’s hoteliers, B&Bs, restaurants, theme parks, visitor attractions and all businesses which attract tourists to “God’s Own Country”.
The awards are open to businesses across the whole of Yorkshire’s tourism sector and will shine a spotlight on outstanding service, quality and that strong Yorkshire welcome the region is famous for. They also want to hear from the general public, and have included a People’s Choice award, and are encouraging people to vote for their “Best Yorkshire Experience”.
Judging the awards are Steph Moon, a recognised figure on the Yorkshire food scene, with many accolades to her credit, including an Oliver Award and appearances on BBC2’s Great British Menu and BBC1’s Chefs Put Your Menu Where Your Mouth Is. Also on the judging panel is the managing director of Bettys, Simon Eyles, Susie Brindley who has worked for over 30 years at a senior level within the tourism industry and Philip Bolson, who runs Mr B Hospitality and was previously the General Manager of the Grand Hotel in York.

There are sixteen categories in the awards, ranging from Hotel of the Year, Taste Award, Best Pub/Brewery to Holiday Park or Campsite of the Year. The closing date for entries to the Yorkshire Post Tourism Awards is October 14. Enter now via the website at https://yorkshiretourismawards.co.uk/
The awards ceremony will take place at Headingley Stadium on Monday December 5.
Guests will enjoy a drinks reception, a deluxe three-course meal and entertainment, as well as the awards themselves, which promise to have you on your feet celebrating the very best of Yorkshire.
