The BIBAs are famous for their fairness and the rigour of the judging process, and for the spectacular awards ceremony where finalists discover whether or not they’ve won in their categories in front of an assembled audience of more than 1,100 Lancastrians.
The ceremony, which this year will be held on Friday 15th September in the stunning Blackpool Tower Ballroom, is remembered by guests for lots of reasons, but it’s often the entertainment that lights-up social media on the night.
We pride ourselves on booking fabulous acts and this year is no exception.
He/she/they will be in great company.
Looking back, the BIBAs stage has been graced by some famous names.
We’ve had Tony Hadley, the Spandau Ballet front man.
Then there was Russell Watson.
Not to mention sixties singing sensation Lulu.
More recently, all the way from Down Under, we’ve had pop-star Jason Donovan.
Actor and singer Shane Ritchie and his band have rocked the Tower for us.
And, last year, it was 1990s boy band Blue.
As always, we’ll be keeping the details a closely guarded secret until the night of the ceremony, but trust us, you’re going to love what we have in store for you!
