SoGlos is proud to reveal the finalists for the new Gloucestershire Lifestyle & Community Awards 2026!
Readers cast over 20,000 votes across 17 categories, including returning favourites like Restaurant of the Year and Family Day Out of the Year, plus a swathe of new, community-focused categories, including the Volunteer Award, Fundraiser Award and Community Award.
The full list of finalists is available to see now at soglos.com/lifestyle-community-awards.
Now that the public vote has determined the finalists, the judging phase begins, where the judging panel, comprised of this year's Gloucestershire Lifestyle & Community Awards headline and category partners, will decide the winners and highly commended businesses in each category.
Proudly supported once again by headline co-partners Pro Global and Made in Gloucestershire, the Gloucestershire Lifestyle & Community Awards build on the previous success of the Gloucestershire Lifestyle Awards, bringing together the very best of Gloucestershire's lifestyle sector, as well as the incredible charities, community groups and individuals that are making a positive difference in the county, too.
All finalists will be invited to attend the exclusive live reveal of winners on Thursday 21 May 2026, taking place at the spectacular Pittville Pump Room for the second year, thanks to our event partner The Cheltenham Trust.
A feelgood event unlike any other awards ceremony in the county, the Gloucestershire Lifestyle & Community Awards has a laid back, party feel with unrivalled networking opportunities – and there's no cost for finalists to attend, thanks to the support of our partners.
