2027 NFAN Awards

NFAN’s annual awards recognise the best in the industry and celebrate the brilliant work of our members. Unique to NFAN members, the awards are free to enter. Winning is a great way to boost your business profile with national and regional PR as well as shouting about your brilliant team and attraction.  

The eight categories cover events, retail, food and drink, the overall large and small farm attraction of the year and a new award for 2027.

The David Taylor Forward Thinking Award is new for 2027 and honours the life and legacy of David Taylor, a long-standing Trade member and loyal supporter of NFAN.

A farmer at heart, David brought a practical approach to designing and installing play equipment across farm parks throughout the UK, supporting many members as they evolved into visitor attractions and created lasting family experiences.

The award recognises organisations that are moving the sector forward through new thinking, improved processes or meaningful development, delivering measurable results, not just ideas. The award is open to both NFAN Farm Attraction and Trade Supplier members.
