We are doing things a bit differently this year and have opened up the nomination process to our local community in order to ensure that all coastal businesses have an equal chance to be nominated for a 2022 Sunshine Coast People’s Choice Award.

During the 5-week nomination period, which runs now until May 11, you are encouraged to nominate your own business and/or to nominate all the local businesses that you love in the 118 established subcategories within this year’s four main categories: Retail; Health, Wellness & Lifestyle; Services; and Food & Drink.

We have developed a Digital Marketing Kit with graphic assets and key messages that you can use to promote your local business and encourage your customers to nominate your business in one, or multiple, Sunshine Coast People’s Choice Awards subcategories.
