Chester Zoo Award

Chester Zoo has been crowned the Large Visitor Attraction of The Year at a top tourism awards ceremony.

The VisitEngland Excellence Awards, which have been running for more than 30 years, took place on Wednesday, June 8, at the Library of Birmingham and were hosted by broadcaster and author, Clare Balding.

Championing innovation, quality and best practice across the business industry, the awards recognise organisations and individuals who raise the bar of England’s tourism offering.

Gold, Silver and Bronze winners were selected from hundreds of applicants across England including hotels, self-catering accommodation, B&Bs, glamping operators, attractions, restaurants, pubs and museums.

On the night, Chester Zoo took home two awards and was praised for its efforts in overcoming the Covid-19 pandemic while also offering visitors a world class day out at the charity zoo.
