The West End Wilma Awards are back for the ninth year, hosted by Tim McArthur.

This year, I am delighted say there will be 15 trophies up for grabs (previously 10), with new accolades for Best Swing, Best Lighting, Best Edinburgh Fringe Show, Best Backstage Dresser and more.

You can now nominate any shows/people who performed between September 2024 – August 2025, that you feel deserve to be recognised in 2025.
