Long-standing competition: the Publican Awards have been running for more than a quarter of a century

The final deadline to enter the 2023 Publican Awards looms with just days left to get entries in for the competition.

The deadline was extended by two weeks to Friday 16 December but this is the last chance for operators to finalise their entry.

The awards have been running for more than 25 years and celebrate the best pub companies across the nation.

With more than a dozen categories, these cover a plethora of options available for operators to showcase their business.

Prestigious awards

Previously, The Morning Advertiser, which organises the awards, editor Ed Bedington said: “These awards are the most prestigious in the sector and culminate in the industry’s stand out event at London Evolution in Battersea on 29 March 2022.

“To win an award at any time is a great thing to achieve, but with the pressures the sector is facing, to be able to stand out as an exceptional company has never been more important.

“Entering the awards also gives you the chance to test your mettle against the best in the business and give your own operation a good once over to ensure you’re firing on all cylinders.

“I’d urge everyone to get their entries in and we look forward to having the honour of judging our finalists down the line.”
