Emirates Spinnaker Tower has taken home bronze for Best UK Leisure Attraction in the prestigious British Travel Awards (BTAs) last night in London.

The BTAs are the largest UK consumer voted programme across any industry, and from June to September, 402,734 people cast 867,221 votes for their favourite UK holidays and attractions, cruises, holidays, airlines and more.

Tony Sammut, General Manager at Emirates Spinnaker Tower said:

“We’re really proud to take home bronze at the British Travel Awards for Best UK Leisure Attraction. It is testament to our amazing team who are so passionate about bringing our unique Tower to life every day. We look forward to building on this award to continue to make our attraction the best it can be. A huge well done to Longleat who took home gold and York’s Chocolate Story who took home silver.”

British Travel Awards’ CEO Lorraine Barnes Burton said:

“Emirates Spinnaker Tower is to be congratulated on winning bronze for Best UK Leisure Attraction. Competition was particularly strong this year but ultimately it is the travelling public who decide the winners by voting for the travel companies they consider the best in the business. The British Travel Awards is the largest awards programme in the UK and to win is truly an accolade.

2019 was a fantastic year for consumer engagement with registered voters up 20% on 2018 and the number of votes cast increased by 15% to 867,221.”
