Fineline Lighting have become the latest brand to lay its support behind the National Outdoor Event Association (NOEA) Annual Awards this year, sponsoring the much-coveted Event Organiser of the Year category.

The news follows on from the announcement last month of new partnerships with Laceys Solicitors, People’s Postcode Lottery, ADIPS, Festivall Services, Wasserman and Eventit, all of whom are sponsoring categories this year. The partnership also underlines Fineline Lightings commitment to the industry and its desire to support the showcasing of exceptional events and the organisers behind them. It also continues the momentum behind NOEA, and the wider outdoor event industry, as businesses continue to support its principal trade association.

Meanwhile, in a more recent trend within the awards, partners have begun to adopt a ‘pay it forward’ approach which has seen some of the brands sponsoring the category they won at the awards last year.

“It’s great to have Fineline Lighting on board this year, they are incredibly good at what they do, massively supportive of their customers and have taken that forward to support their industry as well,” commented Susan Tanner, CEO of NOEA. “We’re particularly delighted by the growing trend in our sponsors looking to sponsor categories that they themselves have been successful in. It sums up the best of our industry and why we’re so pleased to be working with these businesses.”

The NOEA Convention & Awards will take place in Bath, 22nd November 2023, with entries to the awards now open. For more information, visit www.noea.org.uk/annual-convention.
