THE JURY

How Are the Awards Judged?

The Canadian Venue Awards are judged by an appointed panel of industry experts who bring a wealth of knowledge and experience across the event and venue sectors. Our Jury is comprised of recognized leaders in the field, including venue managers, event planners, designers, and hospitality professionals nationwide. With their diverse expertise, they will evaluate submissions focusing on innovation, impact, creativity, and excellence in venue management. We follow a structured evaluation system to ensure a fair and thorough judging process. The Jury independently review entries using our online awards platform, which automatically scores entries based on a series of questions and an evaluation of the submitted materials. Each submission will be judged based on specific criteria outlined for each category. 

We will announce our 2025 Canadian Venue Awards Jury in October, so stay tuned to meet the exceptional individuals who will help us recognize and celebrate the best in the industry. Good luck to all entrants, and we look forward to seeing the fantastic work you’ve done!
