The Beauty Awards 2026 — The Industry’s Biggest Night. Your Brand Centre Stage.

In 2001, The Beauty Awards launched with a simple premise: put the best beauty products in front of the right people and let them speak for themselves. Twenty-five years on, that approach has built the UK’s most trusted beauty awards — a 10-month campaign spanning national press, social media, red carpets and retail shelves, culminating in one night that the whole industry marks in its calendar.

The Beauty Awards 2026 is our most significant year to date as we celebrate our 25th anniversary. We’re proud to welcome back Boots for a second year as Platinum Partner — their continued commitment reflecting the calibre of audience and coverage this event delivers. On 23 November, over 800 guests gather at City Central at the HAC, London. A small number of partnership positions remain available.

Why The Beauty Awards 2026?

25 years of cachet and clout A quarter-century of editorial credibility — built through rigorous expert judging, genuine public engagement and media partnerships that reach millions. That track record is what makes association with these awards worth having.

Numbers worth noting In 2025 the awards generated 181 million in press coverage reach, 55 million in social reach on the night alone, and 12.3 million digital marketing impressions — up 87% on the year before. 2026 is already shaping up to be our strongest year yet.

The audience that matters Over 800 guests attend the ceremony: influencers, celebrities, beauty editors, buyers, PR professionals and brand founders. Beyond the room, a Gen Z audience that engages with these awards because it has consistently earned their trust. Sponsorship here is access, not just exposure.

Coverage before, during and after Pre-event activity begins at entries in April and runs through a 10-month campaign cycle. Post-event press and social content carry well into the Christmas and New Year shopping period — the most commercially valuable moment in the beauty calendar.
