Celebrating its sixth year, the CHS Awards were held virtually this week (Tuesday October 27) in light of the pandemic and judged by an independent panel of over 50 event professionals, who collectively crowned the museum as the winner of the Best Independent Venue category.

Following a £2 million refurbishment and after a four year exclusive use deal with Jaguar Land Rover, the British Motor Museum relaunched its conference and exhibition facilities back into the events market in July 2019, so the win was extremely welcoming after a tough year.

Jeff Coope, managing director at the British Motor Museum, said: “We are thrilled to receive the Best Independent Venue award and to be recognised by our industry peers for our excellent facilities.

“Since relaunching our facilities to the market and after an unprecedented year, I am incredibly proud of the resilience and adaptability demonstrated by our incredible team and to receive the Best Independent Venue accolade is great recognition of all we have achieved so far.”
