It’s that time of year again.
Entries are now officially open here for the Music Week Awards 2025. This is your chance to showcase your achievements and be recognised as a leader in the music industry.
The hugely popular ceremony will return on May 8, 2025 at the JW Marriott Grosvenor House London. Table bookings are open here.
The Music Week Awards are the UK's only music awards that recognise labels, publishing, live, A&R, radio, marketing and PR. From ground breaking campaigns to extraordinary talent, the Music Week Awards celebrate the very best in the business.
Each year the awards are peer-voted and judged by an independent panel of specialist judges. Look back at the finalists for the 2024 awards here.
This year’s edition sold out well in advance of the ceremony, which concluded with an appearance by guest presenters Girls Aloud, who received a rousing reception from the industry audience as they honoured Strat trophy winner Peter Loraine.
There were also big wins for EMI (Record Company), Island (A&R), Warner Chappell (Publisher Of The Year) and Sony Music UK (Sales Team Of The Year).
Universal Music Recordings won the Catalogue Marketing Campaign Award for The Beatles, while The Orchard were recognised with the Artist Marketing Campaign trophy for their stellar work with Raye.
Independent Record Company Of The Year went to EGA Distro, whose MD Charley Snook was also a winner at the Women In Music Awards.
