Entries are now open for the 2026 Bristol, Bath, Somerset and Gloucestershire Tourism Awards, in partnership with the VisitEngland Awards for Excellence, with businesses across the region invited to take part. Entry is free and submissions close at midnight on 31 May.
Nell Barrington, Awards Director, said: “I know how many brilliant businesses there are across Bristol, Bath, Somerset and Gloucestershire, and I’d love to see more of you getting the recognition and reward you deserve. So many entrants have told me about the positive impact the awards have had on them, and we’re here to make it as easy as possible for you to take part.”
The awards celebrate the best of the region’s tourism and hospitality sector and are open to businesses of all sizes.
Entrants benefit from increased visibility, PR opportunities and independent feedback, while selected winners go on to represent the region at the VisitEngland Awards for Excellence in 2027.
Previous entrants, Tyrone and Neil Mundell-Phipps from Myrtle Cottage, Porlock, told us, “We genuinely see no downside to entering these awards. The process offers invaluable insights and feedback, the chance to build meaningful connections, and, of course, the exciting possibility of winning.”
Workshops and support are available to help you prepare their entries. Limited places are available which can be booked here.
