All those thousands of ad agency creatives wanting to attend the Loerie Awards, South Africa’s most prestigious brand communication awards, should take note that bookings for accommodation are now open. Loeries Festival Weekend takes place on 2 and 3 October.
“We had so much fun hosting The Loerie Awards last year and we look forward to a revisiting of the madcap energy and talent we saw in 2009," says Mariette Du Toit-Helmbold, Cape Town Tourism CEO. "For us, as the Mother City, it is fitting that we are hosting this event, where the entire country’s creative “children’ come to honour their best.’
Cape Town Tourism has put together a selection of accredited accommodation options for the event, ranging from backpackers to luxury suites with everything in-between.
“We look forward to welcoming the prestigious Loerie Awards back to Cape Town this year,’ says Sergio Dreyer, general manager of the Grand Daddy Hotel, the Loeries official accommodation partner. “We’re ready to accommodate the visitors to the biggest event of 2010.’
The Cape Town Loeries Village is being extended from the CBD into Greenpoint and Seapoint, broadening the range of accommodation on offer. A 24-hour shuttle will be accessible to all accredited accommodation establishments, including transfers to and from the Awards Ceremonies.
