How do the Best Of Awards work?

Each spring, the Times of Acadiana and The Daily Advertiser announce a call for nominations through an online website survey. After a month-long nominations period, the top five in each category with the most nominations move on to the finalist voting round.

Locals are encouraged to go back to the online website and vote for their favorite finalist in each category. The businesses, people and organizations that are honored in this year's Times of Acadiana "Best Of" Winners edition achieved the most votes from the finalist round. Each is among the top three in their respective categories. And who are we kidding, they also get the bragging rights too!

Thank you to all of the readers and businesses that support the Times of Acadiana and help make the Best Of Awards one of the most anticipated local events of the year.
