Gary Verity, chief executive of Welcome to Yorkshire said:

"The awards evening is a spectacularly glittering affair and a real celebration of all that's amazing about Yorkshire tourism. The judges struggled to draw up a finalists list and choosing the winners from such a wonderful selection of quality entries was a tough task.

"Those who took home a prized White Rose Award should be incredibly proud. Congratulations to everyone who took part and made this the tourism night of the year."

The awards recognise an industry which is bucking UK trends in terms of visits and spend - holiday visits to Yorkshire were up by 16% January - May 2011 (compared to a 3% decrease nationally). The Independent Passenger Survey also revealed overseas visitor spend has soared during the peak summer months, doubling from £33m to £59m in just two years.

Barbara Woroncow OBE, Chair of the independent judging panel, added:

"Yet again, we have had a record number of entries for the White Rose Awards. However, it is not the quantity that has impressed us but the quality. Congratulations to the 16 winners who are a perfect example of how standards have gone up significantly across all sectors of Yorkshire's strong and diverse tourism industry."

Winners from this year's awards will go through to the national Visit England Awards for Excellence in 2012.
