A Night of Brilliance
The nineteenth edition of the Global RLI Awards was a glittering celebration of retail & leisure excellence, hosted on 24 October at the opulent The Londoner hotel in London, UK. Returning to its iconic spirtual home, this year's event highlighted trailblazing projects and visionary companies shaping the future of the industry.
Since their inception, the Global RLI Awards have travelled across prestigious locations, evolving alongside an industry that thrives on innovation. In partnership with Headline Partner Sands Retail the evening dazzled with a Champagne Reception, a gourmet dinner and a breathtaking performance by MJ the Musical. The ceremony honoured winners across 13 categories, recognising standout achievements in creativity, sustainability, technology and development.
RLI Publisher Jayne Rafter encapsulated the spirit of the evening in her opening remarks:''These awards were created to honour those who dare to push boundaries and refuse to settle for less than excellence. It's a reminder of the importance of collaboration and recognition in a rapidly evolving landscape.''
