BRADFORD district businesses were celebrated at the 2025 Telegraph & Argus Retail, Leisure and Hospitality Awards.
The Broadway was transformed into an award space for over 300 guests on Sunday night.
The celebration, in partnership with The Broadway and Bradford BID, was a brilliant opportunity to give recognition to a number of well deserving businesses, located in the district and to give credit to their achievements.
David “Nova” Nowakowski, a Bradford-born musician and TV co-host for the daytime show “Loving Living Local”, based in Colorado USA, hosted the night.
There were performances from Ellie Sax and Punjabi Roots as well as a delicious dinner for the guests alongside a drinks reception.
It was followed by an afterparty at Nightrain in Bradford city centre.
