#1 in the 904 RESULTS: 2021
While our September issue was our final monthly high gloss Void Magazine that we produce, votes continued to flood in online for our annual survey, the #1 in the 904. Votes have been tallied and you all have picked the #1 in the 904. Give yourselves a pat on the back! Thank you to all of our past and present staff, readers, and advertisers for supporting our vision since May 2010. This isn’t goodbye, it’s a brief pause while we write Void’s next chapter.
Without further ado, below is the list, albeit long, of all things #1. Toot your horn… shout from your rooftops… brag to your social media followers. Congratulations to all!
We have included the collaterals in a link at the bottom of this page for the winners so you can use these images as you see fit.
