Col Parrôt - Media Award

Since its inception, the Caravan Industry Victoria Media Award has recognised individuals who have made a significant contribution to promoting the caravan industry in Victoria. In 2021, the Award was renamed the Col Parrôt Caravan Industry Victoria Media Award in honour of Col Parrôt’s outstanding and passionate promotion of the industry, and his long‑standing, influential contribution to its growth and reputation.

Col began his distinguished career in advertising and promotions within the caravan industry in 1975 and has consistently demonstrated unwavering passion for the industry and deep respect for the people who work within it.

The Award has since been expanded to recognise both Individuals and Marketing Campaigns.
