Submissions have been reviewed and cut down and the best of NSW’s tourism businesses have been recognised as finalists in this year’s NSW Tourism Awards.
Ahead of the awards night on 26 November, over 100 businesses in 29 categories were selected by the Tourism Industry (a division of the NSW Business Chamber) for offering high standard tourism products and an evolution of products and services to remain competitive.
Among the finalists is the iconic Taragona Zoo which is up against Featherdale Wildlife Park and The Big Banana Fun Park for the title of Best Major Tourist Attractions.

Stephen Cartwright from the NSW Business Chamber said finalists should be ‘incredibly proud’ of their accomplishments and their contribution to driving employment and economic growth.
“This year, entrants across the board have shown that they are more innovative in their services and have focused on how they can better meet the needs of their customers.”
