INCA Awards
Rewarding Excellence
The Annual INCA Awards
The highlight of the EWI industry calendar is undoubtedly the annual INCA Awards ceremony which celebrates External Wall Insulation at its best. Nominations are spread over various categories with each submission being rigorously scored by a panel of fully independent industry expert judges.
Following the hugely successful event in Birmingham in 2024 we’re moving up the M1 to the beautiful city of Leeds in 2025. Once again, we’ve taken on board your feedback and plan to make a few changes this year in an effort to make it even more memorable and to make it a little easier to enter too! Again, for your comfort, we are limiting capacity to around 300 guests so we strongly suggest booking early to avoid disappointment.

INCA Awards 2025 – The Venue
In 2025 we’re back in the grand ballroom of the Queens Hotel in the very heart of Leeds city centre. An impressive venue conveniently located in the very heart of Leeds city centre with good parking facilities and next door to Leeds city station.
The Queens Hotel Leeds is described as “one of the most iconic buildings in Leeds city centre”. It’s been welcoming guests since 1937 – some of them rich and famous. A stay here means you’re following in the illustrious footsteps of Princess Grace of Monaco, Cary Grant, Nelson Mandela and Laurel and Hardy. The hotel underwent a massive £16m refurbishment in 2021; it now features new elegant art deco styling and 232 transformed bedrooms.
INCA Awards 2025 – The Host
We are delighted to announce that the host of the 2025 INCA Awards will be none other than the instantly recognisable comedian and actor Shaun Williamson.
Shaun is a versatile and accomplished stand-up comedian, singer, television and stage/screen actor, presenter, entertainer, cabaret performer and after dinner speaker. Best known for his portrayal of ‘Barry Evans’ in EastEnders. A favourite on TV Shaun has also appeared in Ricky Gervais’ ‘Extras’ series 1&2 and in Ricky Gervais’ new series ‘Life’s Too Short’. He also appears regularly in cabaret with a 10-piece band and won ITV’s ‘Celebrity Stars in Their Eyes’ for his performance as Meatloaf.
We really look forward to introducing Shaun to you on the night.
