VANA Gala Industry Awards
Dear Members,
“The Best Industry Awards Ever” was the quote from VANA & NLNA CEO Brendan Tohill.
A packed house at the iconic Victorian Arts Centre saw the best night ever at VANA Industry Awards night.
The entertainment was amazing, Chris Sebastian was superb and Sarah Maclaine absolutely blew the roof off the Arts Centre with an incredible rendition of Beyonce’s HALO!
Angela Pippos steered the ship all night with a warm and engaging MC performance.
Special thanks to all our VIP’s that attended including Hon. David Southwick MP – Deputy Leader of the Liberal Party, Hon. Wendy Lovell MP – Liberal Party, Lynda McAlary-Smith – Victorian Small Business Commissioner and Dr Peter Larkins – Olympian and Mental health advocate.
Congratulations to all our award nominees and winners – all great newsagents and even better people!
