Jimmy Birchmore Events has been named as one of the best event suppliers of the year in the 19th National Outdoor Events Association (NOEA) awards 2022.
We’re a finalist in the ‘Event Supplier of the Year – Services’ category, alongside six other prominent companies, and will battle it out against them in the national final, on 23rd November.
The awards as a whole are bigger than ever, with 17 categories, and some of the most recognisable individuals and brands in the events industry, as well as new and emerging talent from across sporting and music festivals to country shows, and cultural events.
Jimmy Birchmore, business owner of Jimmy Birchmore Events said:
“We are proud members of NOEA and are grateful to them as an organisation for what they do for the events industry. To be shortlisted as a finalist in their industry awards is a great honour, especially given the calibre of who we are up against.
“This nomination is a fantastic recognition of the Jimmy Birchmore Events team, and the quality of the work they deliver in an outdoor environment, which often means challenging conditions, and long hours – all delivered with a smile and a lot of laughter!”
Established in 2009, Jimmy Birchmore Events offers a fully integrated and complete event service, specialising in agriculture, environment, food chain and land-based sectors.
“Coming out of the Covid-19 pandemic has put immense pressure on the events industry, where we have gone from famine to feast, as it were, with this year being incredibly busy. The team has risen to the challenge and I’m exceptionally proud of them,” adds Jimmy.
The finalists will be announced at the Annual Convention and Awards Dinner held in the Roman Baths and Pump Rooms, Bath, on 23rd November and will see the very best in the industry gain recognition across 17 categories.
Susan Tanner, NOEA’s Chief Executive, said: “This year again saw a massive increase in entries, so we created more categories to recognise the diversity of entries and the different events they presented.
“This is such a reassuring sign for our industry, that it is creating events of this quality shows confidence as well as excellence.”
Alistair Turner, chair of the judging panel and managing director, EIGHT PR & Marketing, added: “The entries have always grown stronger and stronger, but it really took a jump this year and it was a real challenge to create the shortlist. Within it though we have some incredible events reflecting the expertise, creativity and inspiration that is on show across the industry. It was a pleasure to read them all.”
