Book now for the biggest and best LCN Awards ever

Time is ticking to get your tables booked for the 2022 LCN Awards.

The Awards return to Belfast’s Europa Hotel on Friday, September 30, with 17 lucky winners being celebrated on the night.

Categories include Restaurant of the Year, Chef of the Year and of course the Lifetime Achievement gong, presented to someone who has not only excelled in hospitality but has shown others a blueprint for how to do the same.

The big night itself includes a feast of top entertainment, with hosts Sarah Travers and Joe Lindsay returning to keep the show on the track throughout the big night.

This year promises to bigger and better than ever, with past winners licking their lips at the prospect of a return and the possibility that they could again be among the winners of Northern Ireland’s most prestigious hospitality awards.

Having previously picked up the Hotel of the Year (over 75 rooms) for Galgorm Spa and Resort, the Galgorm Collection’s Colin Johnston told LCN he can’t wait for the return of an award night which gives everyone in the industry a huge lift.

“It’s great to have the LCN Awards back… it has been long anticipated.“It really is the go-to event for the industry, and it will be fantastic to have everyone back in the room again and I know everyone is looking forward to it.

“I know from experience how much of a buzz being nominated gives our teams who thrive on chance to win and get a real kick out making everything the best it can be and even the thought of inspectors popping in

“If you actually go on to get an award that’s the icing on the cake. They are second to none.”

“James McGinn, Hastings managing director and former manager at the Europa, told LCN: “The last event was superb, the razzle dazzle, Greatest Showman. It was the best yet. We are really looking forward to what comes next.”

What comes next will be a bigger and bolder event than any previous LCN Awards, with more than 500 entrants battling it out across 17 categories, with the shortlist soon to be revealed.

So book your table now, get the DJ to the dry cleaners and get dress shopping for the best night in the NI hospitality calendar.
