Activity of the Year Winners, Rib Ride

Outstanding Experiences

From one Outstanding Experience to another!

Last Thursday, the Go North Wales Tourism Awards brought together an incredible mix of businesses, innovators, and passionate people from across the region. We at Snowdonia Hospitality & Leisure  were delighted to sponsor the Activity of the Year award—always one of the most exciting categories of the night.

This year’s winner, Rib Ride, couldn’t be more deserving. Their high-energy, unforgettable boat experiences have become a must-do for visitors and locals alike. Fast, fun, and run by a team who genuinely love what they do—Rib Ride showcases the very best of North Wales’ outstanding experiences and adventures.

Why This Award Means So Much to Us

We’re incredibly proud to support the activity sector here in North Wales. The quality of experiences available across the region just keeps getting better, and it’s no exaggeration to say many are world-class.

Sponsoring the Activity of the Year award gives us the chance to celebrate the teams who put in the hard work, passion, and creativity that make North Wales such a special place to explore.

Region Where Great Businesses Thrive Together

One thing we love about North Wales is how brilliantly our businesses complement each other. Whether it’s adventure, hospitality, food, or heritage, every part of the visitor experience plays a role in raising the bar for the entire region.

Seeing Rib Ride shine—and seeing all the amazing finalists in the category—reminds us just how strong and vibrant the tourism landscape is here. It’s this collective quality that keeps visitors coming back year after year.

Looking Ahead

We’re thrilled to have been part of such a fantastic evening, and even more thrilled to continue supporting the people and businesses who make North Wales a standout destination.

A huge congratulations once again to Rib Ride, and a big well done to everyone involved in making North Wales a place full of exceptional experiences.

Here’s to another year of adventure, collaboration, and world-class activities across the region!
