2025 Creative Edinburgh Awards Ceremony

This November, we're inviting you to conjure the magic of creativity, rejoice in the spirit of artistry, and celebrate the fortunes of those who have boldly pursued their creative visions over this past year.

Edinburgh is a city shaped by its rich history and dramatic landscape - a place where storytelling is stitched into the very fabric of its streets. Steeped in mystery and lore, this city offers a powerful emotional and visual backdrop for creativity. Beneath its surface lie countless untold narratives, waiting to be discovered - much like the emerging and unheard creative voices that make up this magical community.

At the 2025 Creative Edinburgh Awards Ceremony, we'll reveal this year's winners, spotlighting the people and projects who have made their mark and helped redefine what creativity means in our city today.

Book your tickets now and raise a glass to the imagination, resilience and brilliance of our community - past, present and still to come!

The 2025 Awards campaign, 'The Magic of Creatives' has been created by local freelance designer Rachel Cartledge.

How are we making the event accessible?

There will be a BSL interpreter throughout the Awards announcements.

Central Hall has two entrances to the main building: the first is the main entrance accessed from West Tollcross Street and the other is an accessible entrance on Dunbar Street.

When entering from Dunbar Street, a lift has access to the main event areas on the 2nd and 3rd floors with a disabled toilet on each floor. You can find out more information on their website.

Please let us know when registering or contact us directly if you have any other access requirements. We will do our best to accommodate your needs.
