About the day itself

There were an outstanding array of entries in 2022 and the judges had the incredibly tough job of choosing finalists, who joined them at the Usher Hall Edinburgh to not only announce and celebrate the winners, but dance the day away with a range of Forth One stars and celebrities from the worlds of music and comedy – it’s the ticket that sure to guarantee fun, feels and pride, at the grand finale in 16th on November.

Richie Jeffrey, Events and Marketing Manager of Forth One said: “We are delighted to bring The Forth Awards back to the Usher Hall after our amazing 2022 return

“We are so proud to recognise the amazing work of those in our community, and celebrate some of the biggest names in music and entertainment.

“Perhaps you have a special reason to nominate a special person, or maybe you feel there is a group or individual who works tirelessly for the needs of others? Cast your nomination today, and make sure other people get to know just how amazing they are.”
