Welcome to the 9th year of Best of the West, Revue’s annual readers survey where the people of West Michigan choose their favorite restaurants, bars, musicians, attractions, people, artists and much more.

This year, we will once again have two rounds of voting. In the first round, you have a blank slate to write in whoever/wherever you want for each category! No need to vote in every single category—we know there are a lot, but we want to spread the love to as many people and communities as possible.

When voting is over, we'll tally the top three finalists for every category, and then we enter the second round, where voters will choose who is the best of those three—easy!

Here's the timeline:

Round 1 Voting: April 8 - May 17
Finalists announced: June 3
Round 2 Voting: June 3 - 21

 
Once both rounds of voting are over, winners will be announced in the August 2024 issue of Revue. In the meantime, thank you so much for supporting local people, places and organizations by voting in the 9th annual Best of the West. It means the world to so many of them.
