Over 800 supporters, staff, club partners, guests, club Chairman Sharon Brittan and the full Wanderers’ squad gathered in the club’s glittering Premier Suite at the weekend for what proved to be a night to remember for all those in attendance. 

Hosted by BBC Radio 2 DJ, television broadcaster and lifelong Wanderers’ supporter, Vernon Kay, the 2024/25 End of Season Awards, sponsored by Franking Sense, was a showcase and celebration of the current season that included a sumptuous three course meal, live entertainment from musicians and singers, auctions, games and a series of awards for supporters and players.

Neil Hart, Chief Executive Officer at Bolton Wanderers said: “The feedback from the weekend is that Saturday’s End of Season Awards was the best one yet and I think I speak for everyone in the room when I say it truly was a remarkable night. 

“From the incredible talent that is Vernon Kay to the fantastic food and entertainment we enjoyed on the night, it was a fantastic way to celebrate the many achievements of not only Ian Evatt and his players but our wonderful supporters too. 

“Our thanks go to all the club partners who supported the night, from headline sponsor Franking Sense to the award sponsors Bolton Stadium Hotel, Bolton Wanderers Supporters’ Trust, Carrs Pasties, Eventura, AGR Building and Fencing Ltd and Heritage Trade Frames. 

“I’d also like to thank all the Wanderers’ staff behind the scenes who put in months of hard work to make Saturday night happen. The success of the evening is testament to the talent we are lucky enough to have working at the club.”
