Final call for Music Week Awards entries!

Final call for Music Week Awards entries!

There's not much time left to enter the Music Week Awards - 6pm on Monday (March 22) is the deadline for online entries here.

The Music Week Awards is returning for 2021 to deliver a celebration of the music business like no other, so don't miss your chance to enter!

Set to take place at Battersea Evolution in London on September 14, the biggest industry night out of the year will recognise brilliant achievements from across the business. Once again, the great and the good will gather to honour outstanding work in labels, publishing, management, live and beyond.

The deadline - which was recently extended due to exceptional circumstances - is almost upon us, all entries must be completed and submitted before 6pm on Monday, March 22. The eligibility period is January 1, 2020-December 31, 2020. To enter yourself or your company, simply click here to submit your application.

Last year’s ceremony had to be cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic, although the awards were still handed out in a special edition of Music Week. The 2021 edition will, of course, follow all the latest government advice and regulations to ensure a safe event.

In acknowledgement of a unique year for the industry, there will be two brand new categories for 2021; Live Music Innovation Of The Year and Talent Agency Of The Year. Both awards will recognise the outstanding innovation in the live sector, as the business met the challenges and restrictions imposed by the coronavirus pandemic head on.

And, in recognition of the live industry hiatus, the 2021 Music Week Awards will not include the following four live categories: Ticketing Company, Live Music Promoter, Live Music Agent and Festival Of The Year. These will return in 2022. The Grassroots Venue: Spirit Of The Scene award will still be handed out, in acknowledgement of the key community role many grassroots venues have played during the pandemic.
