The Judges, Judging & Stuff You Need to Know
It's free to enter the Famtastic Awards until 1 July 2024, but late entries after this date wil be charged a small administration fee of £25+vat per submission. Agencies and buyers judge the venue and supplier entries, and suppliers judge the agency entries - and all of our judges only score and rank entrants that they know and have experience of dealing with, to ensure the process is fair and transparent.
We are always on the lookout for event professionals who would like to be a part of the judging, which is all done online and independently, and can spare some time in August to contribute. If this sounds like you, please email Janet (janet@cloud9em.co.uk) , who will be happy to provide you with the details.
We will also be running a Speed Dating Style networking event in advance of the awards and suppliers are welcome to attend. Please see below for additional details.
