About Eventbrite’s Search for Britain’s Hobby Hero

From bee keeping courses to pottery classes, calligraphy lessons to candle making workshops: Eventbrite is a great place to discover your next hobby, practice it with like-minded hobbyists, or to set up an event to share your passion with others.

To celebrate the nation’s love of hobbies and the people who share them, Eventbrite is launching a nationwide competition to find the UK’s Hobby Hero. The winner will receive a cash prize of £2,500 alongside £2,500 worth of support from Eventbrite’s experts to help them spread the love of what they do with others.

Our panel of judges might contact you with some questions, and will shortlist the best entries before we ultimately crown Eventbrite’s Hobby Hero.
