Independent Judging

Each award category is independently judged (Stadium Experience does not judge any of the awards).  

Some categories are voted for by stadium directors, The British Culinary Federation organise and judge the Chef Team of the Year Award, and Salon Culinaire judge the Matchday Hospitality Awards.  The majority of categories are decided by a team of experts with many years experience in their fields, which vote for their top 3 entries.
