There’s just a week left to book tickets for the Northern Marketing Awards.
The 2017 event will return to the The Hilton hotel in Manchester, this time on Wednesday 1st November.
The awards have once again been generously supported by headline partner Click Consult.
The fifth running of the awards – the ‘must attend’ industry gathering for marketers in the North – has once again seen a record number of entries.
To book tickets, visit our dedicated booking page on the Northern Marketing Awards website, or contact Don’t Panic on 01706 828855 or Sarah Belcher directly on Sarah.Belcher@dontpanicprojects.com.
A sell-out crowd of over 400 attended the 2016 awards, and we’re confident that this year’s event will reinforce its reputation as the benchmark annual marketing industry services event outside London.
