The Royal Philharmonic Society Awards are a unique moment in the year to come together and celebrate a truly national story of excellence, creativity and innovation in music-making with special guests, inspirational stories, and live music.
Since 2021, we have presented the RPS Awards in a refreshed and open format, with a vastly-reduced ticket price giving more music lovers and music makers than ever before the opportunity to get together and feel part of the festivities.
Following recent RPS Awards in Birmingham (March 2025) and Manchester (March 2024), the RPS Awards are set to return to the Queen Elizabeth Hall at the Southbank Centre in London at 7.00pm on Thursday 12 March 2026, hosted by BBC Radio 3 presenters Georgia Mann and Petroc Trelawny.
As a charity, we are proud to present the RPS Awards with generous support from individuals and organisations who believe in shining a deserved light on the outstanding artists and initiatives whose music lifts hearts and minds across the nation. We are immensely grateful to our Principal Supporters joining us in 2026, including BBC Radio 3, ABRSM, BBC Music Magazine, Dorico from Steinberg, Presto Music, PRS for Music and Sir Simon and Victoria, Lady Robey CBE.
We look forward to announcing further supporters as the event draws near. If you would like to talk about developing a visible, fruitful association with the RPS Awards in any capacity, as an organisation or individual, we would be so pleased to hear from you. Please contact Harriet Wybor, our General Manager, and we will look forward to starting a conversation.
