Celebrate Success. Inspire Growth. Build Community. On the evening of Friday 14th November, the spotlight will be firmly on the borough’s brightest businesses as the newly evolved 2025 St Helens Borough Business Awards returns with a glittering celebration of local success, innovation, and entrepreneurship.
Taking place at the Town’s premier event space – The Totally Wicked Stadium, this prestigious evening will honour outstanding organisations and individuals who are helping shape the future of St Helens’ economy and community.
Previously hosted by St Helens Chamber, this much-loved event is now continuing under new leadership, with exciting new partnerships driving it forward.
The Stadium along with St Helens Council & The Growth Company, are proud to keep the tradition alive while bringing a fresh perspective to celebrate the outstanding achievements of businesses across our borough.
Some of the region’s most influential business leaders, entrepreneurs, and dignitaries will come together for a night of recognition and celebration. The event will feature a red-carpet arrival, two-course dinner, live entertainment, and the all-important awards presentation, hosted by Graeme White.
Finalists will be chosen by an independent panel of judges with deep ties to the local business and civic community.
“This is more than just an awards night – it’s a celebration of everything that makes St Helens such a dynamic and resilient place to do business,” said Sonia Caldwell, Conference & Events Sales Manager at The Totally Wicked Stadium “Our local businesses continue to inspire us with their determination, creativity, and community spirit.”
The Awards will also feature an exciting new addition, a charity category giving recognition to the fantastic work of St Helens charities. The evening promises to be a night of recognition, networking, and generosity.
Attendees will have the opportunity to make donations on the night with one lucky charity chosen at random being the lucky recipient of all the total monies raised.
The St Helens Business Awards is all about celebrating excellence and community spirit and we are proud to add this charitable element to the evening.
