Recognising excellence. Celebrating Lancashire.
The Lancashire Tourism Awards celebrate the people, places and experiences that make Lancashire one of the UK’s most inspiring visitor destinations.
From breath-taking landscapes and vibrant towns to world-class attractions, outstanding food and unforgettable places to stay, Lancashire’s tourism businesses create experiences that stay with visitors long after they leave. These awards shine a light on those stories, recognising the dedication, creativity and commitment that power the County’s visitor economy.
As the largest and only county-wide tourism awards, they represent the pinnacle of achievement in Lancashire. As the only route for Lancashire businesses to enter the VisitEngland Awards for Excellence, they offer a rare opportunity to take that success onto the national stage. Year after year, we are proud to see Lancashire businesses go through to be recognised as national finalists, representing the County among England’s very best.
The latest STEAM 2024 figures reflect both the scale and resilience of the sector, with 68.6 million visitors, generating £5.7 billion for the economy and supporting over 57,000 jobs. But behind these achievements are businesses working harder than ever, adapting, innovating and continuing to deliver outstanding experiences in challenging times.
These awards are a moment to pause, recognise and celebrate the hard work, innovation and resilience that define Lancashire’s tourism sector today. A chance to shine a spotlight on those who go above and beyond, supporting local communities and driving the industry forward.
Delivered by Marketing Lancashire, the County’s accredited Local Visitor Economy Partnership (LVEP) the awards play a key role in championing excellence and supporting the continued growth of the visitor economy.
For entrants, it’s an opportunity to showcase your success, reward your team, and stand alongside the very best in Lancashire and beyond.
For sponsors, it’s a chance to be part of something meaningful: to align with a £5.7 billion sector, support the businesses at its heart, and demonstrate your commitment to Lancashire’s future success.
Together, we celebrate what makes Lancashire exceptional, not just in moments of success, but in the strength and spirit that make that success possible.
