The shortlist has been revealed for the UKREiiF Festival of Achievement – with nominated individuals and companies revealed for the awards.
Following the first day of UKREiiF (16th May) over 800 people will gather at a unique awards ceremony in Millennium Square, overlooked by the incredible Leeds Civic Hall. The event is looking to shake up the awards scene – binning the traditional sit down meals with black tie and cocktail dress attire, instead bringing a vibrant and refreshing feel to the event.
Alongside award announcements tickets will get delegates access to fairground games such as the coconut shy and hoopla, rides like the carousel and a ferris wheel, and entertainment including live music, a caricaturist and magician. Attendees will also get a token to choose from a variety of pop-up food vendors…with choices ranging from the traditional fish and chips to pizza, Mexican and dirty donuts.
So who’s got their name in the hat as potential winners?
