It is now up to the Hall Landers to decide who represents the county in the best way. This is the first time that the awards ceremony is taking place in Halland, but has previously been in other counties such as in Skåne. Canita Dagård is CEO of the Halland Marketing Association and talks about how the idea came about.

- After all, we appointed this year's landmark driver last year, so why shouldn't we have this year's hall landing? The board thought it was a canon idea and we have already received a lot of response.

40 unique suggestions

There are a total of six nominees on the list, including Linnea Henriksson and Per Gessle. But in total, they received around 40 proposals on who could represent the county.

- It was very difficult to choose, but we had to think a little about representing different genres and maybe current events for 2019.

"Time to be a little proud"

In the criteria for being nominated, one must, among other things, have done publicity for Halland and worked in public, and in general gave a good picture of Halland.

- It's about time you should feel a little proud! Get a little Halland Patriotic and leave the Jantelagen a little neighbor, says Canita Dagård.

Who will be the winner will be kept secret until the awards ceremony on December 19 at Halmstad Arena. When the winner is appointed, you will put a photo on the winner at Halmstad Airport, and the idea is that you will continue to post photos of future winners.
