The Outsider Awards 2023!
The annual Outsider Awards celebrate all of the amazing achievements, milestones and contributions that have taken place in the Irish outdoor community over the past year. And we have to say that we are truly blown away by the calibre of our nominees in 2023.
You can read all about the amazing people nominated over here on Outsider.ie, or explore the list of incredible categories at the base of this article. Some categories will be decided by the panel of judges, and other categories are open to the public vote!
At the event, we will be celebrating Ireland’s incredible natural assets by hosting a panel discussion on Ireland’s outdoor spaces and how to protect them. We at Leave No Trace are delighted to be supporting this panel discussion for the second year in a row – it is always so inspiring to hear about how connected we all are to our natural environments, no matter what our chosen speciality is.
The overall winners of each category will be awarded at the Outsider Awards event at the Sugar Club in Dublin on 21 February 2023. It’s always a great evening that brings together all of the amazing individuals and groups that make the Irish outdoor scene so special.
