As the unsung heroes that keep the UK on the move, the independent sector has been overlooked for too long. As the UK’s largest representative trade body for independent garages, the IGA feels that it is time to put this right with awards truly created by the industry, for the industry.

The BIG Awards are open to all independent garages in the UK, with meaningful awards highlighting all aspects of running a successful, local garage business. The awards evening will be fun and welcoming for teams of all sizes, with a drinks reception, three-course meal and entertainment, music and dancing late into the night.

All shortlisted entries receive two complimentary tickets to the awards, with winners receiving high-profile recognition from the UK’s largest automotive trade body.
