The B+LNZ Awards dinner has been postponed
We have made the difficult decision to postpone the Beef + Lamb New Zealand Awards dinner scheduled for 2 February 2022 due to the sudden move to COVID-19’s red traffic light system.
Keeping farmers, our people and the red meat industry safe is our first priority.
This decision hasn’t come lightly and was made after consulting all finalists and stakeholders.
We know this postponement will be disappointing for those involved..
We are also working through a process for the reimbursement of tickets purchased and will be in touch with people on this separately in due course.
Keep a lookout for a new date here and via B+LNZ’s social media channels..
About the Awards Dinner
Once a new date is set, the inaugural Beef + Lamb New Zealand Awards Dinner will be a night of celebrating the people, the innovation, the technologies and management systems that make New Zealand’s grass-based red meat industry world-leading.
Throughout the evening we will introduce the finalists and announce the overall winners of the eight award categories.
The evening will also provide an opportunity to sample some of the finest produce of our great agricultural sector.
