Event of the Year
Criteria:
This award recognises outstanding events in heritage rail that have delivered more than just a visiting locomotive. Event types could include (but are not limited to) a family event, a historical recreation, or an enthusiast focussed event. The event must have taken place during the last 12-months. This can be a one-off event or part of a series of events, all taking place within one year or annually.
The event should:
- Have a demonstrable target audience and evidence of how it was attracted.
- Have produced a tangible benefit to the organisation.
- Demonstrated high-quality in event planning and delivery.
The event must be completed.
TOP TIP: It's normally easier to work on your draft submission in a text document then paste it into the submission form when you're ready. Be clear and concise, use bullet points if necessary.
