The Wyre Business Awards, Wyre’s most prestigious celebration of business excellence, are back for 2025, and entries are officially open!

Proudly organised by Wyre Council, these awards shine a spotlight on the outstanding businesses that are driving innovation, creating jobs, and powering the local economy. From small start-ups to established enterprises, the awards recognise success across a wide range of sectors and are completely free to enter.

This year’s glittering awards ceremony will take place on Tuesday 21 October at the iconic Marine Hall in Fleetwood, which marks its 90th anniversary in 2025, making this year’s event even more special. The event itself will celebrate the Golden Age of Hollywood.

Businesses across Wyre have until Friday 1 August to submit their entries. For full details, including how to apply and access the applicant guidance, visit https://awards.investinwyre.co.uk/
