This award recognises the very best stadium event held in the last year (since 01 April 2024).  Judges are specifically looking for a stadium venue which has displayed exceptional venue facilities and outstanding guest experiences.

1. Customer Service – Exceptional client and customer service and support (pre, during and post event)
2. Food & Beverage – Outstanding range of food and beverage options for guests
3. Technology & Production – State of the art equipment, technology and production support within the venue

The case study should not exceed 2 pages of A4.  Supporting evidence can include statistics, customer feedback, pictures and testimonials (no more than one additional page). Please ensure your case study is saved in an editable format such as Word (not PDF’s), to enable minor errors to be corrected on the request of your clients (i.e typos).
