Business NSW and Gosford Erina Business Chamber (GEBC) have partnered to launch the 2025 Central Coast Visitor Economy Awards in late January 2025.
The awards will showcase the best of Central Coast regional tourism, highlighting the operators and businesses demonstrating exceptional dedication, innovation and customer service across categories including festivals and events, accommodation, cultural experience and eco-tourism.
“While decades in the making, the incredible work from local business owners and supporting stakeholders has seen our region burst onto the national and global stage as an award-winning tourism destination in recent years,” Business NSW Regional Director Scott Goold said.
“In the past 12 months alone, 11 Central Coast Tourism businesses have taken home gold medals across various state, national and international awards programs.
“There is no doubt that the Central Coast visitor economy sector has well and truly earned its own program of recognition.”
The ambitious awards program has been specifically designed as a business development tool.
Not only will it be a platform for businesses to celebrate and share successes and achievements, but it will also shine a spotlight on areas for improvement and transformation.
“We want finalists to not just leave with a certificate and trophy at the end of this experience,” GEBC President Peter Lawley said.
“We want all entrants to walk away with key insights and feedback that will help drive the growth and longevity of their business.
“We are proud to partner with Business NSW on the 2025 Central Coast Visitor Economy Awards.
“Everything we do to strengthen our local operators and industry makes us stronger as a region.”
The 2025 Central Coast Visitor Economy Awards will open in late January.
Finalists will be announced in early April, culminating in a gala awards event at the end of May.
