The Irish Pub Awards 2019 were launched in Dublin yesterday at The Bankers Bar, Trinity Street, Dublin 2. 

The Irish Pubs Awards are jointly presented by Licenced Vintners Association (LVA) and Vintners’ Federation Ireland (VFI).

This is the third year of the Irish Pub Awards, which acknowledge and recognise excellence and innovation across various categories in the pub sector. The Glyde Inn, Annagassan, Co Louth won the Irish Pub of the Year title in 2018, while a further nine category winners reflected the high standard of pubs around the country. The Irish Pub Awards 2019 are open to all members of VFI and LVA.

The nine categories are: 
Best Food Pub 
Best Tourist Pub 
Innovative Pub of the Year 
Best Local Pub 
Best Outstanding Customer Service 
Best Music Pub 
Best Newcomer 
Best Outdoor Space
Best Late Night Bar

The 63 regional winners will be showcased as best in class in their region and will receive a prize package to the value of €20,000 comprising management training and media coverage to help them develop their business. The media coverage will include a profile piece in an awards supplement in the Irish Independent on the day of the awards presentation on 20th November.

Speaking at the launch, President of VFI, Padraic McGann said, "We have been amazed at the support for and the recognition of the Irish Pub Awards since its inaugural event and now, in its third year, we are confident that the awards will continue to grow. The awards celebrate everything great about our pubs – including their warm hospitality, the excellent food and drink offer and, of course, the music."

Chairman of LVA, Alan Campbell added, "Now the definitive national industry standard, the Irish Pubs Awards are quickly gaining recognition throughout the trade as a programme that provides a credible and comprehensive assessment of the best in Irish Pubs.  It offers pubs in Dublin and around the different regions an opportunity to raise the profile of their business through national and regional media coverage. That, together with the technical and management training afforded to all regional finalists makes it an initiative the LVA are delighted to support."
