Created back in 2013, the ShoutOut Listeners’ Awards will proudly return again in 2024, and be awarded in 2025.
One of the first ever major outreach programs we developed, the awards have grown from their humble beginnings in our studios into a massive part of ShoutOut’s schedule. After a bit of a break thanks to covid, they returned in 2023 and we’re now proud to say they will be back again for 2025.
Designed to recognise the hard work and dedication of different people and groups in our community, the awards give our listeners a voice - they nominate and vote for the winners.
Round 1 - Open Nominations
The awards will open at the end of November until just before Christmas for round one. Round one is open nominations. Listeners will be able to nominate anyone they want for any of the awards on offer*.
UPDATE: extended by popular demand to the 26th January!
Round 2 - Finalists
Following a break of a couple of weeks for Christmas and New Year, the voting will open again at the beginning of February 2025. The most nominated in each award will be available for listeners to vote for. Voting will close at the end of February 2025.
The Awards Ceremony
The awards ceremony will take place once the voting is counted and verified, towards the end of March 2025. Broadcast live, we hope you will join us and help us make this year bigger and better than ever, and another year to remember.

About Yugo
We are incredibly proud to be working with Yugo as our main sponsor again this year. Their help and support has really helped ShoutOut elevate the awards to the next level, as well as keep our outreach programs going throughout the years inbetween. It is great to have them back again for the 2025 awards.
Launched in July 2021, Yugo is the first global student housing brand and operator. Yugo addresses student demands for sustainable, educational and personal growth to enhance their higher education journey. Yugo offers a truly differentiated living experience that is environmentally and socially conscious, emotionally supportive and safe. With two properties and their HQ here in Bristol, they wanted to help support the local community - ShoutOut's values and mission aligned perfectly with Yugo's making us great partners to work together for the better of the LGBT+ community.
