Welcome Sponsor! We are looking forward to celebrating with you and our wonderful 2026 finalists on Thursday 11 June, at the Hyndburn Business Awards Ceremony at the Dunkenhalgh Hotel.

Arrival is strictly from 5.45pm for the Sparkling Reception, we will start sitting down from 6.30pm with dinner service commencing at 6.45pm. Award presentations will begin at 8.40pm. We expect the presentations to finish around 10.15pm and the bar will close at 11pm.

It will be black tie, so do dress to impress! 🥂

Seating Plan & Drinks Preorders

1. The Seating Plan will be created by end of day on Thursday 4 June so you’ll know which table you will be on at HBA26, we will circulate this in an update email to everyone – you will be able to view who’s on which table at this link too from 4 June
2. Tables seat 10-12 people so you will likely be sharing with other local businesses, it’s a great chance to network and meet fantastic new business friends
3. Seats on tables will not be reserved, we ask that you sit next to whoever is already seated (leaving a space for any of their guests who haven’t arrived yet!) so all parties can sit together, thank you
4. We don’t issue paper tickets, once you’ve booked your name(s) will go onto the guest list
5. There will be a Wine Ordering Table in the Pendle Bar on the night to preorder drinks to your tables.
