Chetan Shah, micebook CEO and founder said: “It was an emotional night and one filled with optimism for the recovery of our sector. I am extremely thankful to all the entrants for taking the time to enter, share their work and for attending on the night. We want to support the industry, so we recover faster and stronger; and whilst faster was wishful thinking, stronger is definitely on the horizon."

“Thank you to all our sponsors and event partners for their support. Thank you finally to the micebook team, Jessica, Nisha, Olivia, Susie, Nicola and Kym for their passion, energy, and commitment to delivering an event to the highest of standards that this discerning audience deserved. And save the date for the next micebook awards 1st July 2022!”

Stand-up comedian, writer and actor Hal Cruttenden hosted the awards ceremony, supported by our show narrator Shonali Devereaux. Thanks to our partners Event Trees, Table Art, and Eco Scent for making the ballroom look and smell fantastic, and Nomad Band and DJ Sasha for the after-party entertainment.
