Welcome to the Lancashire Tourism Awards 

Lancashire Tourism Awards 2026  


Lancashire’s only county-wide celebration of tourism.

Marketing Lancashire is proud to deliver Lancashire’s only county-wide, annual celebration of tourism supported by sponsors and partners who also want to acknowledge the significance tourism makes to Lancashire’s prosperity.. Winners from 14 core categroies in our awards feed up into the national Visit England Awards for Excellence, giving them the opportunity to raise their profile even more. The Lancashire Tourism Awards go from strength-to-strength each year and Lancashire’s success at the Visit England Awards for Excellence is testament to the strength and quality of our product on a national level.

This is a rewarding journey for applicants to step outside of  their business and look in to remind themselves of how much they have achieved in the last 2 years. With many categories receiving a mystery shop or judging visit, and feedback from judges at every stage, many businesses use the awards as a business development tool as well as a staff motivational tool and a great night out at the end of it all. Award-winners will be announced at the joint awards ceremony in February 2026. 
 
It’s a proud event for Lancashire and we’re looking forward to making it an event to remember for all those involved.

All businesses MUST be based within Lancashire.
