More exciting stuff to do with #T4WA

Holy crapsticks, there’s less than a week to go until the Fourth Annual Wellingtonista Awards! You already know, of course, that you need to vote before December 15, and that the doors to the Awards Ceremony open at 6.30pm on December 17 at Mighty Mighty. We’ve told you about the Klezmer Rebs who are playing, but we haven’t mentioned that there’ll be a secret musical interlude. And we also haven’t told you about the awesome spot prizes we have to give away on the night, so let’s do that now: 

Tickets are just $10 on the door, and we can promise you that it will be a rollickingly good time, so you’re coming along, right? 

Vote for the T4WAs!

In the last month or so we’ve collected nominations for the various categories in the Fourth Annual Wellingtonista Awards; we’ve written them all up for you to read; we’ve handed out certificates to (most of) the nominees (if you’ve been nominated and haven’t got yours yet, hold tight, I’ve been somewhat occupied elsewhere – Jo); and we’ve generally been living in anticipation of This Very Moment.

 

For now… [drum roll please] …it is your turn.

 

You need to vote, in each of the categories, for whom you think should win one of the coveted T4WAs.

 

And you need to do that, right here, right now. But only one completed survey per person, please!

 

VOTE HERE (Voting has closed).

 

Voting is open from now through to midday on December 15th. And once you’ve voted, you should clear a space in your calendar for the Awards Ceremony, which will be at Mighty Mighty on December 17th (Add the event on Facebook if you roll that way). The awards presentation should be happening around 7.30pm, and then at 9.30pm we are very excited to have the Klezmer Rebs playing tunes for us all to shake our tuchasses to!  

Lastly, in case you need to check back on the details of some of the category nominees, here’s each posting:

It doesn’t matter how good the food is at a restaurant or how comfortable a bar’s stools are if the staff scowl at you and dump your order down grumpily in front of you. What makes us loyal customers is the interaction with the people on the other side of the customer, and these men and women are the shining stars in their field. Being served by them really does make the day better.
