The Timeline
How Famtastic Are You?
It's been a pretty torrid time for the event industry, and we have all bounced back. As we are a fabulous and resilient lot, it's now time to shine a light on some outstanding venues, companies and people, with the Famtastic Awards.
Free to enter, until the early bird deadline, we are looking to recognise amazing agents, superb suppliers and just all round famtastic aspects of our industry,
Entries are free until 31 March 2023 and then charged at £25+vat per entry for late submissions

The Judging & Results
Judging is completely transparent. Our extensive panel of experienced and excellent judges will have access to all entry submissions and will be asked to vote, and score only those venues, or indeed agencies, that they have direct knowledge or working with.
The results will be based upon the total average score submitted by our various jurors over each and every category, and where there might be a discrepency, or the scores are too close to make a decision, the judges will be consulted for their opinions and then our chair of the judges will make a final call.
All of the judging will be complted online (we know our judges are busy people) and in each category, with the exception of the Famtastic Rocks Special Award, which does not invite entries, there will be a winner and a highly commended awarded (unless there are insufficient entries in that category.
It is a fair and transparent system and where entrants receive an unusually low score, it will be queried to ensure the judging and process remains impartial and unbiased.
We want to recognise excellence and have fun along the way!
