Coastal Radio Local Business Awards

The inaugural Coastal Radio LBA (Local Business Awards) in 2024 was a resounding success, setting the stage for what promises to become an annual highlight in the region’s business calendar. The event was made possible by the incredible support of Coastal Radio’s headline sponsor, Danbro Business Solutions and Financial Planning, alongside the invaluable contributions of the other 24 category sponsors, all of whom played a vital role in bringing the awards to life. A heartfelt thank you was extended to every sponsor, partner, and supplier involved in the event. Without their commitment and dedication, this celebration of local business excellence would not have been possible. The support they provided was instrumental in ensuring that the event not only ran smoothly but also delivered a memorable experience for all those involved.

Over the 12 weeks leading up to the awards, businesses, organisations, and individuals across the area were nominated and voted for by the local community in recognition of their outstanding contributions to their industries. A wide array of businesses were celebrated, with categories spanning a diverse range of sectors, reflecting the rich and varied talent within the local business landscape. From startups to established enterprises, the event highlighted the achievements of those who have made a significant impact within their fields. The culmination of all the hard work and anticipation was the spectacular Gala Dinner Awards event, held in the iconic Blackpool Tower Ballroom. The breathtaking setting provided the perfect backdrop for an evening of celebration, where the shortlisted nominees were honoured for their achievements. The atmosphere was electric, as the community came together to recognise the best and brightest in business, creating a sense of pride and unity that will no doubt fuel future growth and innovation in the area.

With such a successful debut, the Coastal Radio LBA is set to become an important fixture in the annual events calendar.
