Information for Bars & Pubs

For bars and pubs, the awards offer an excellent opportunity to show off your hard work and achieve industry recognition as being among the best of the best.

The ten bars that receive the most nominations will be whittled down to four by our mystery shoppers and all four of the finalists will receive two complimentary tickets to the esteemed awards show held at the Doubletree Hilton in Glasgow on 29 August in 2023. There will be a three-course meal served to all who attend.

To be in for a chance all you need to do is tell your customers to vote for you! Whether you personally tell your customers about the awards or post about them on your social media, your customers need to be voting for you if you want to be in with a chance as only the ten bars with the most nominations will go on to the mystery shopper stage.

Furthermore, all of the winners from the individual bar and pub categories will automatically be put forward for the most prestigious award: The Sunday Mail Pub of the Year Award. This award celebrates the best of the best, rewarding quality and achievement across the board making this award the ultimate accolade for any bar or pub.

Finalists will receive two complimentary tickets for the awards and if you wish to attend the awards or simply require a few extra tickets, contact Rebecca: accounts@mediaworldltd.com. Tickets pricing tbc.
