The inaugural 2019 CN Agency Awards took place on Thursday 21 March at London's Cafe De Paris in Leicester Square. The theme of the 2019 event was the Great Showman! Entertainment on the evening included actors in Monkey costumes and cabaret dress, greeting attendees as they entered a venue dramatically lit in Purple, Orange and Red.
Attendees were served drinks and then sat down for a three course meal, after CN editor Martin Fullard took to the stage to give out the Pioneer Award to Fay Sharpe.
Throughout the dinner, attendees were then treated to further entertainment from the actors and dancers, including a fire-breathing performance, circus ring acrobatics and dance routines.
