The UK event industry’s biggest and most prestigious recognition programme, M&IT Awards, have opened voting and Liverpool Convention Bureau need you! And you could win big too with a trip to Abu Dhabi up for grabs courtesy of M&IT.

Recognised as the biggest and original event industry awards programme, it’s twice as big as any other awards in the event industry calendar. Plus, it’s the only independently audited events industry awards programme. Organised by Meetings & Incentive Travel magazine, the awards brings together all sectors of the industry to reward excellence of service. After such a challenging year, we’re ready to reflect on this time in a positive way.

The country’s convention bureaux have been pivoting to hybrid, keeping in touch with clients, providing coronavirus advice, working with venues. But have they caught your eye this year?

Deadline for voting is Wednesday 9 June.
