The Alternatives are back
It’s time to book your seats for the Alternatives, one of the highlights of the travel industry calendar.
It’s back in 2011 – alive, fighting, scratching, spitting and above all mercilessly taking the mick out of anybody with the merest hint of an ego.
The awards are being held on 15th December at The London Metropole Hotel and it can be guaranteed as the one night of the year when all and sundry literally let their hair and guard down.
As in previous years, nobody who attends can feel safe from the caustic wit and stinging tongue of the Alternatives' hosts Nick and Viv Wrightman.
This year will be no different as they allow unsuspecting volunteers to put themselves up to scrutiny, mocking, teasing and the most wholesome derision.
If you think you’re hard enough, book your seat now by emailing [email protected]
All proceeds go to charity.
