It’s back! Harrogate’s Hospitality and Tourism Awards will be going ahead this year after being postponed and then cancelled in 2020 and 2021.

The HHTA, launched in 2008 by hoteliers Simon Cotton and David Ritson, aims to highlight and recognise people working in the hospitality and tourism sector.

We chat to Simon and David about this year’s event, how the event has struggled to go ahead during covid times and why it’s more important than ever to celebrate the individuals and achievements within Harrogate’s hospitality and tourism sectors.
