[title]Voting is now open in the Time In Awards – a reader-voted celebration of the best responses to the 2020 lockdown in Melbourne. We’re paying tribute to the people and things that have done so much to enhance our iso-life these past two months.
Time In’s editors have compiled a list of nominees and now we are throwing it open to the public to vote on the winners. We’re giving away 24 awards in five categories: Food; Drink; Arts and Museums; Entertainment; and Homebound Heroes.
Vote now, and not only could you win a Lockdown Prize Pack, the award winners will have the kudos of a Time In Award to help their business rebound. Can't see your choice in the nominee list? You can add in your own nominee – and they can still win the award if enough people vote for them.
The Prize Pack you stand to win is worth $400 and includes a $300 voucher to spend at Moon Dog World plus $100 of product from hip uniform makers Cargo Crew, including a denim tote, two tea towels, and two aprons with name personalisation.
Last day of voting is Sunday May 31. The awards will be given away during a virtual livestreamed ceremony on Instagram Live at 6pm on Tuesday June 2. Read our list of nominees below and head to the voting site to cast your vote.
Please note: write-in nominees should be relevant to the category in which they are submitted. Time Out reserves the right to discount inaccurate or inappropriate votes, and our decision is final.
These awards are made possible thanks to Impos, Australia’s leading point of sale system; Moon Dog refreshing craft beers; and makers of chic uniforms Cargo Crew.
And the nominees are....
