WhatsOnStage today announces that the ceremony for the 25th Annual WhatsOnStage Awards, in association with AudienceView, will take place at The London Palladium in 2025 – as the awards celebrate turning a quarter of a century.
Taking place at 7pm on Sunday 9 February 2025, the evening will see winners crowned across a range of categories. Theatregoers will also enjoy a host of exclusive live performances from top stage talent, accompanied by a 24-piece orchestra. The event is co-produced with creative directors Alex Parker and Damian Sandys.
Tickets will go on general sale from 11am on 4 October 2024 via LW Theatres.
Now in their 25th year, the WhatsOnStage Awards are the only major theatre awards decided by the theatregoers themselves.
WhatsOnStage’s Darius Thompson and Alex Wood said today: “”As we kickstart the process for the 25th Annual WhatsOnStage Awards in association with AudienceView, we look back at the millions of votes that have been cast over the last quarter of a century. What these awards celebrate, beyond all else, is that brilliant relationship between creatives and audiences – those who have turned up, night after night, to cheer on and applaud performance in all its forms.
“We can’t wait to get back to The London Palladium next year. The team at LW Theatres were so wonderful, patient and collaborative during our first outing there last February, and we’re already cooking up some fantastic surprises to mark our silver anniversary.”
Nominations will open on 7 November, with further information to be announced shortly.
