The National Outdoor Events Association (NOEA) has announced that the Postcode Lottery and Laceys Solicitors will once again support the NOEA Awards, continuing their commitment to recognising excellence across the outdoor events industry.

The organisations will sponsor the Best Small Event of the Year and Best Events Team award categories respectively at the NOEA Awards, which will take place on 25 November 2026 at the Roman Baths and Pump Room in Bath.

The NOEA Awards bring together event professionals from across the UK to celebrate the people, projects and organisations that continue to raise standards, inspire innovation and demonstrate the very best of the outdoor events sector. The continued support of organisations such as Postcode Lottery and Laceys Solicitors helps ensure those achievements are recognised and celebrated by the wider industry.

Postcode Lottery returns following another year of supporting communities and good causes across Britain. Their continued involvement reflects a shared belief in the power of events to bring people together, create positive experiences and generate lasting impact.

Meanwhile, Laceys Solicitors also returns as a sponsor, continuing a long-standing relationship with both NOEA and the wider events industry. As trusted advisers to organisers, venues and suppliers across the sector, the firm has developed a strong understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing events businesses today.

Nicole Allan, Head of Events at Postcode Lottery, commented: “Events have a unique ability to bring people together, create shared experiences and strengthen communities, which is why we are delighted to continue our support of the NOEA Awards. Across Britain, the outdoor events industry delivers moments that enrich people’s lives, support local economies and create lasting social impact. The Awards are an opportunity to recognise the individuals and organisations making that happen, and we are proud to play a part in celebrating their achievements.

Brendan Herbert, Partner, Laceys Solicitors added: “The outdoor events industry continues to demonstrate an incredible combination of creativity, professionalism and resilience. Behind every successful event is a huge amount of expertise, planning and commitment, often delivered under significant pressure and complexity. We are proud to continue our association with the NOEA Awards and to help recognise the people, teams and organisations who consistently raise standards across the sector and showcase the very best of our industry.

The NOEA Awards will once again provide an opportunity for the outdoor events community to come together, celebrate achievement and recognise those helping shape the future of the sector.
