Speaking Sensis

Ok, Citysearch® – Australia’s leading entertainment and lifestyle website- wants your opinion! Be it your favourite place for a Sunday Session or the most romantic restaurant in town, Citysearch® is on a mission to uncover and award Australia’s favourite city hot spots via a campaign called the Citysearch® Best in the City Awards. Check it out at Citysearch.com.au/awards.

The Best in the City Awards has Citysearch® turning the tables on city urbanites and asking them what they think are the best places in town. Unlike countless industry awards that have been done to death, these awards are ‘the people’s choice’ awards – local categories, local picks, voted by local people – people who know and love their city.

So it could be the incredible view from the roof-top bar, the barista who is a master of latte art, the talented street performer in your local strip or the waiter who knows exactly how you like your steak. Citysearch® believes successful city entertainment is built on an ability to offer a unique experience and make it a memorable moment in time. So now it’s time to give Australia’s savvy public a voice and a chance to tell us what they love most about their city.

Until 12 September 2009 nominations are open. Monday 21 September 2009 will see the finalists announced and the public will be invited to vote.

Voting closes 23 October and the inaugural Citysearch® Best in the City Award winners will be announced 2 November 2009.

The awards are running in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne. The ten award categories represent the best entertainment options in town, from ‘Best Friday night drinks’ to ‘Best vegie fare’ with the winner in each category taking home the prestigious Eye-Con trophy and the kudos that comes with being voted number one.

So tell us what’s hot in your city and nominate your favourite entertainment options for the title of Citysearch® Best in the City, visit www.Citysearch.com.au/awards.
