Buckinghamshire Business Awards Ceremony 2024

Buckinghamshire Business Awards Ceremony 2024

Organised by Buckinghamshire Business First, the evening will be a glittering affair. The Buckinghamshire Business Awards recognise and reward the achievements of organisations both large and small from across the county. 

Now that we know who the finalists are you'll want to make sure you're at the Waterside Theatre on October 9th for all the glamour & glory of awards night!

A perfect opportunity to thank valued employees and entertain special customers, why not book a table and bring them along for a fabulous night out.

Tickets can be purchased by any business, even if you have not submitted an entry to the Buckinghamshire Business Awards.

Master of Ceremonies - Nathan Cooper 

We are delighted to welcome back Nathan Cooper as our awards ceremony host.  

A co-founder of Bucks Radio, Nathan has been the voice of Bucks for over 20 years, first getting behind a mic in Aylesbury in 1997. Away from radio he relaxes by travelling the length and breadth of the country every weekend working on...radio, in his role as a football commentator, and he's also the announcer at Oxford United, a job he's been doing since even before he started broadcasting in Bucks (yes, he was still at school when he started at the football club!)
