About this Event
Are you ready for the annual Creative Edinburgh Awards Ceremony? This year marks our twelfth celebration, showcasing the outstanding creatives who make Edinburgh the vibrant city it is!
Join us for an evening filled with fun, celebration and inspiration as we announce the winners of the 2024 Awards, honouring the people and projects that are pushing the creative boundaries in our city.
The night will feature performances by local artists, as well as music and dancing. As freelancers, creatives, and small businesses, we often miss out on year-end office parties — so let’s come together and celebrate 2024 with old friends and new!
