in the judging process by Friday July 13th . This email must include your name, title

The 3/5 shortlisted contenders in each category receiving the highest public votes,
will receive a visit from one of our judging panel for the relevant category.
The venues shortlisted will be notified by email and will appear on southeastradio.ie
as well as being broadcasted on South East Radio.
An expert panel of judges for each venue type will select the overall winner for each
category in that venue type.
The Judge’s decision is final. No correspondence or feedback will be entered into.
The organisers of the Hospitality Awards have contracted the independent judges to
be in County Wexford on a limited number of selected dates later this summer to
carry out the on-site judging phase. Judging will take place on the selected days only
and if your business is unable to host the judge on the selected date & random time
we will have no alternative but to eliminate your venue/nominee from the category.
- If your business is shortlisted in a food related category you are required to provide
samples of your choice from the menu which will showcase your venue at its best.
For those voting for their favourite new establishment in the restaurant section
