Accolades is currently partnered with Durham Tourism to produce:

Savour the Season, Durham Region's culinary celebration of the harvest. 

Sharon Wilcken, of Accolades Events, was the co-host for Rogers TV live on-site coverage of the 7th Annual Pickering Easter Parade, put on by the Ladies Auxiliary of the Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 606, Pickering.  Click on the picture to see the SNAP article.

Accolades was at the 2010 Pickering Jazz Festival, featuring Devine Brown.  To see pictures from the event, click here.

 After 3 years of working behind the scenes on the Markham Ribfest, Accolades Events became the official Event Coordinators for the 2009 festival.

This year was record-breaking in terms of revenue and attendance, almost doubling the number of participants over last year.

Features of this year's festival included award-winning ribbers (of course!), exhibitors, vendors, and over two days of highly acclaimed Canadian musical entertainment, including Juno award winner Jack De Keyzer, as well as an emphasis on family fun, with an expanded mid-way, roving circus entertainers and a scavenger hunt.

Next year, the event aspires to an entirely "green" implementation.
