Can we make it three in a row?
We are delighted to let you know that we have been shortlisted for the 2027 Marketing Cheshire Best Event or Festival Award for 2027. We have been lucky enough to win this award in both 2025 and 2026, which means that we have held it since it was created.
Celebrity Cheshire TV couple Adam and Katy Rickitt confirmed they will celebrate tourism superstars and host the Visit Cheshire Tourism Awards 2027 in February.
Today Adam - best known for playing Nick Tilsley on Coronation Street and Kyle Kelly on Channel 4's Hollyoaks – and Katy a reporter for Good Morning Britain, said they were "super excited" at the chance to help celebrate the businesses and people powering Cheshire and Warrington's world class tourism offer.
The Visit Cheshire Tourism Awards, organised by the region's tourism body Marketing Cheshire and sponsored by Staff 86, celebrate the businesses and individuals behind Cheshire and Warrington's £4.3 billion visitor economy which attracts more than 50m visitors each year.
As well as unveiling the celebrity hosts, Marketing Cheshire added to the list of confirmed finalists (full list below) as judging has now concluded in the Best Event and Festival Award.
