After reviewing a long list of possible towns, The Loerie Awards has invited these four host cities/locations to submit proposals to host the 2009 Awards ceremony. The tender deadline is the last week of September 2008 [poll]. The Loeries Committee has been involved in discussions around hosting the awards at different locations around South Africa, and the decision has been taken to invite proposals so that the benefits of the different options could be carefully assessed. “We've held the Loeries in Margate for four years,” says Festus Masekwameng, chairman of The Loerie Awards. “It's certainly a strong contender in the process, but the committee has received a lot of feedback from the industry, as well as interest from other cities. We wanted an opportunity to evaluate a shortlist of venue options.” The tender deadline is the last week of September, after which the Loeries Committee will review the pitches. A final decision will be made in October this year. “Margate and Sun City both offer a contained, small-town environment, which creates more of a getaway atmosphere,” says Masekwameng. “Johannesburg and Cape Town both offer big city infrastructures, and each option brings with it opportunities and challenges.” Have your say - vote now in our poll: Which city should host the 2009 Loeries?
