It was another great night at the industry’s only awards dedicated to the large format printing industry.
Eye on Display brings you all the UK Graphic Awards winners first.
The UK Graphic Awards tends to be a bit different from the many other awards during the year. Now in its 4th year, this is the one that the large format print specialists really want to be part of.
At the Hilton Metropole Birmingham for the first time, October 15th’s gala awards dinner was a celebration of creativity, friendship and some rather exuberant dancing.
Matt Hanley of MTWO Search, sponsor of the Rising Star award commented, “I don’t think anybody brings the industry together quite like an Awards ceremony/evening. In my opinion, this one is one of the best. The categories, the people, the sponsors. It’s a really good vibe. Loads of collaboration, celebration, and chaos.”
Founder of the awards, Dan Tyler, added, “A few people last night asked me why I keep doing this. Seeing everyone enjoying themselves, meeting old friends, and making new friends is what keeps me going. A huge congratulations to all our winners and thank you to everybody who entered, sponsored, supported, shouted about, attended, and helped us put another brilliant chapter of the UK Graphic Awards in the books.”
