    Local Business Awards 2025 Winners

    The 2nd Coastal Radio LBA's was a roaring success!

    A huge thank you to our headline sponsor, Blackpool & The Fylde College, and indeed to all our category sponsors too.

    Also, a big thanks to all our suppliers—we couldn't have done any of it without you all.

    Over the past weeks or so, you guys nominated, then voted for, the people and businesses that you believed merited recognition in one of the amazing categories.  We celebrated each of those shortlisted and the winners with a spectacular Gala Dinner Awards event in the stunning Blackpool Tower Ballroom.

    A huge thank you from Coastal Radio to everyone who attended.

    See you all again next year!!
