The IVAO Events Support Award is a special award used to create activity and increase the attractiveness of an IVAO Event. Born upon the legacy of the old HQE Award, this award is integrated when the Divisional Events Department or the IVAO Events Department wants to highlight the importance of its event – generally speaking, this award is usually integrated into an RFE/RFO/MSE, PDE, or events that celebrate an important occasion such as an anniversary, an airbridge between two divisions, and more.
