Every year, the BIBAs doesn’t just shine a spotlight on Lancashire’s top business talent—it also delivers a major boost to Blackpool’s economy.
When hundreds of business leaders, entrepreneurs, and industry professionals descend on the resort for the county’s most prestigious awards night, they bring more than glamour. Their presence fuels the local economy through hotel bookings, restaurant visits, attraction tours, and more—contributing hundreds of thousands of pounds in economic uplift.
Beyond the immediate impact, the BIBAs foster powerful connections, spark new collaborations, and champion the spirit of enterprise that drives Lancashire forward. It’s a celebration that extends far beyond the ballroom—enhancing Blackpool’s profile, showcasing its capacity to host world-class events, and supporting local jobs and businesses in the process.
In short, when the BIBAs comes to town, the entire community benefits.
