Don’t feel like you have a shot? Think again. Did you know 1 in 4 shortlisted creators last year had fewer than 10,000 followers? We don’t care about the size of your audience, it’s what you create that matters.
After entries close, every channel will be reviewed by our expert judging panel and placed into the category where it shines brightest. Originality, storytelling, craft, and impact are what will set you apart.
Whether you make people laugh, share knowledge, push creative boundaries or celebrate a niche – lean into your strengths. Let your work speak for itself and show us why you deserve the spotlight.
