Another Liverpool contender – the Little India Liverpool Association – was a finalist for the Tourism 2024 Campaign award.

Liverpool Mayor Ned Mannoun said he was thrilled to see Liverpool emerging as a fantastic tourism destination.

“The blend of rich history, diverse culture, and vibrant community truly sets it apart. From its beautiful parks to local events and attractions, Liverpool has so much to offer visitors,” Mayor Mannoun said.

“These awards are a testament to the hard work and passion of everyone involved in promoting the area. These events also boost the local economy and last year brought around $25 million worth of business into the city.”

The Tourism awards are the latest in a series won by Liverpool Council, demonstrating it is not simply carrying out the business of council, but doing it with excellence.

“Liverpool City Council has a strong proven track record of achieving above average results for its residents and ratepayers,” Cllr Mannoun said.

“We consistently create innovative solutions to problems and find better ways of looking after our community and those who do business in the city.”

Liverpool Council won two awards at this year’s 2024 Keep Australia Beautiful Sustainable Cities Awards.

Two major council projects; “The Croc” mattress shredder and the Liverpool Pioneers Memorial Park were nominated for three awards in the annual series and won one each.

“The Croc” won the Circular Economy award and was also a finalist in the Resource Recovery category and the Liverpool Pioneers’ Memorial Park was highly commended in the Heritage and Culture category.

Liverpool’s Yellamundie Library and Art Gallery was officially declared a global finalist in the World’s Best Library award, running second to the $300 million Chinese ³Ô¹ÏÍøÕ¾ Library in Beijing and the only Australia library to be shortlisted.

Liverpool Council was also awarded The Premier’s 2024 Business Excellence – Local Government Medal for outstanding achievements by a Local Government organisation that has worked to develop and support a diverse local community.
