Creative Edinburgh Awards 2020 & 9th Birthday Bash!

Details

Join us for our virtual celebration of the Creative Edinburgh Awards 2020 + 9th Birthday Bash on Thursday 12th November from 6.00pm!

Plans are underway, the shortlist has been unveiled and we've got Party Packs to deliver… now all we need now is you! Be sure to save the date and prepare to join us in celebrating the bright ideas and beacons of light that illuminate our city’s creative scene.

What are the Awards?

Since 2011, we've been celebrating the city's creative community at our annual Creative Edinburgh Awards, highlighting the projects, people and places that flourish across Edinburgh and continually ensure its place on the cultural map. Combined with Creative Edinburgh’s Birthday Bash, we get together to don the dancing shoes, raise a glass and cheer on our fellow creatives!

While we may not be in the same room this year, we'll be coming together virtually, united in spirit and sharing cheers, woops and hollas from all corners of Edinburgh!

You’ll hear from the people behind the shortlisted projects, learn more about the ceremony sponsors and partners, and see the 2020’s winners announced LIVE! Plus, you can enjoy our virtual after party with music live streamed from our venue partner, 54EP.

The Running Order

18:00 - 19:15 - Virtual Doors Open + Delve into the Shortlisted Projects

19:15 - 20:15 - The Creative Edinburgh Awards Ceremony - Live!

20:15 - 21:00 - After Party - Music Live Streamed from 54EP

The Line Up

We’ll be announcing the winners of our ten Awards: Student, Commercial, Start Up, Collaboration, Independent, Social, Creativity, Leadership, City, and 2020 (because it’s been a year!). You’ll also learn more about the projects and people shortlisted first-hand in our live streamed Creative Edinburgh Awards film!

This year's Awards is produced in collaboration with 54EP and Sweetdram. We'll be live from their amazing rehearsal and recording space to announce the winners. Plus you'll hear from Dan Fisher, Co-Founder of Sweetdram and get a behind-the-scenes look at the space!

We've also partnered with Edinburgh Music Lovers and the team at 54EP to deliver an after party worthy of a kitchen disco! Announced soon, local musicians will join us from 8.15pm so push the sofa back, call your pals and prepare to see the night out!
