BREAKING: All Star Bash Finalists Revealed!

After months of deliberation, the Power Retail team has compiled the best in the e-commerce industry. These nominees will get the chance to win one of the many prestigious awards taking place at the All Star Bash, hosted by Power Retail.

The All Star Bash has been a staple event for the industry for several years, and it just gets better with age. This year, we’re celebrating the Australian retail industry live we’ve never done before, with a colossal 24 awards.

The Biggest Year Yet?

Every year, the All Star Bash gets bigger and better – 2022 will be no exception.

Last year, there were more than 800 guests that attended the All Star Bash in Crown Palladium, up from the 650 the year prior.

This event is the perfect time to get all dressed up, let your hair down, dance and celebrates all of the achievements that Australian online retailers have made in the last year.

It’s been a topsy-turvy 12 months since the last time we celebrated, and so many incredible achievements have been made along the way. That’s why we think it’s only fair to add another four awards to the list, pushing it out to 24 in 2022.

In 2021, Bunnings took home the biggest award of the evening – the 2021 Online Retailer of the Year. As a major innovator and commander from the pandemic, the business propelled itself ahead of Woolworths, which was the undisputed winner since the inception of the All Star Bash. Who could take it out in 2022?

The All Star Bash is taking place at Crown Palladium on April 6th, kicking off at 6.30 PM.

The 2022 Event

This year, there are several retailers that are sweeping the nominations list, with Adore Beauty up for a whopping eight awards, with Cotton On and THE ICONIC both up for four awards.

Up for grabs this year include some of the crowd favourites, such as the Top Innovator, Top Emerging Online Retailer, and Top Sustainable Retailer. We’ve added new awards this season, too, including the Top Personalisation, Top Loyalty Program and Top Australian Marketplace.

And of course, we have the biggest awards of all, including the No.1 Online Retailer, Top Online Only and the Top 100 retailers.

How exactly do we judge the Top 100 retailers in the lead up to the All Star Bash?

In developing the Top 100, Power Retail has developed a ranking methodology that analyses retailer performance across the four key dimensions of the consumer lifecycle; Acquisition, Conversion, Fulfilment and Retention.
