The 2025 UK Festival Awards, powered by Festival Insights, is officially open to all entries.
The UK Festival Awards celebrates the very best of the festival industry, and in 2025 our landmark yearly event returns to Manchester on 2 December.
We’ll be welcoming key figures from throughout the festival industry for a night that offers vital insight into the ever-changing festival landscape. Guests will be welcomed with a drink’s reception, a banquette style seated dinner, and most importantly the awards ceremony.
Whether you’ve curated the ‘Line-up of the Year’ or championed sustainable practices, the UK Festival Awards will toast the success stories from 2025 – and we want you to join us.
This year we’ll be awarding over 20 categories, from Small, Medium and Large Festival of the year and Artist Agency of the Year to the decorated Sarah Nulty Community Impact Award and the Industry Recognition Award. We’ll also be recognising those who are implemented cutting-edge tech innovations, alongside all the artist and marketing agencies and production teams who keep the industry rolling.
Entries are now open to all festivals, and all festival entries can be submitted here. Tickets will be available to buy soon through the UK Festival Awards website.
