With the 2022 People’s Choice Awards now in full swing, it’s time to show your favourite local venues some love and encourage your customers to vote for you.
As always, our six main category winners of favourite restaurant, café, nightlife, entertainment, event & attraction and local product will be invited to accept their awards at the Canberra Region Tourism Awards on Friday 25 November 2022.
With sub-category winners also up for grabs, winners of a main category will be unable to take home a sub-category nomination, making room for more local love.
If you’re desperate to beat the previous winners in this year’s vote, don’t forget to download our promotional assets and share them on your socials to reel in as many votes are possible!
This year, the awards are bought to you by our gold sponsor, national real estate group The Agency and silver sponsor, Westfield shopping centres. Like us, our sponsors are committed to the Canberra community, recognising the importance of celebrating the incredible achievements of our local businesses.
