Broadcast Sport has revealed the shortlist for the Broadcast Sport Awards 2021.
The awards shine the spotlight on the sports production and sports broadcast industry. It’s the first year of the Broadcast Sport Awards and we’ve been overwhelmed by the response and number of entries we’ve received.
The Awards consist of 18 categories, covering everything from sports documentaries and live sport production, the pundits and presenters, to social media content, advertising and marketing campaigns.
It’s Broadcast’s fourth set of prestigious television industry awards, and will be a showcase event for the sports production and sports broadcast community.
The winners will be revealed on 3 November 2021 at a gala awards dinner at the luxurious surroundings of the Ballroom at the JW Marriott Grosvenor House Hotel on Park Lane, London.
Broadcast Sport Awards 2021 - Why should you attend?
It will be a night of excellent food, drink and company, in the luxurious surroundings of the Grosvenor House Hotel. It will also be one of the first opportunities in a long, long time for the UK’s sports industry to get together and network in person. We look forward to seeing you there and, if you’re shortlisted below, we wish you the very best of luck with your entry. See you on 3 November.
The Broadcast Sport Awards 2021 honour the most creative and inspiring examples of sports production, sports broadcast and digital sports content of the last year.
The Awards also highlight the outstanding people working both in-front-of and behind the camera.
