News

December 7, 2022

Held on 6 December at Manchester’s Escape to Freight Island, the long-anticipated return of the UK Festival Awards provided an ideal opportunity for festival organisers, suppliers and the wider live entertainment industry to get together and reflect on the past season while looking forward to the next.

The awards are decided by a combination of fan votes and judges’ verdicts in categories including Best Major Festival, Outstanding Contribution and, for this year only, the Positively Perfect Pivot Award – which acknowledges the festival business that applied its skills to alternative activities during the COVID-19 pandemic.
