The Variety Club Showbusiness Awards will make a glittering return on Sunday 19th October 2025 at The Londoner Hotel, Leicester Square.

Hosted by Katie Piper and Mark Wright, the ceremony promises a night of glamour and entertainment, while commemorating the 70th anniversary of ITV.

The Awards continue their dual mission of celebrating exceptional talent and supporting the charitable work of Variety, the Children’s Charity, which has raised millions for children with disabilities and disadvantages across the UK.

       

This year’s event will spotlight ITV’s legacy as the UK’s largest commercial broadcaster, launched in 1955, and its enduring impact on British television and entertainment.

The evening will feature a dazzling line-up of celebrities and performances, recognising achievements across Film, TV, Comedy, Theatre and Music.

Professor Jonathan Shalit OBE, Chairman of Variety, the Children’s Charity, said:
“The Variety Club Showbusiness Awards stand as one of the UK’s most prestigious honours, conceived to recognise outstanding contributions to British entertainment. The Awards have maintained the dual purpose of celebrating exceptional talent and supporting the charitable work of Variety, raising millions of pounds for children with disabilities from disadvantaged backgrounds across the UK. The 2025 Awards will be extremely special, celebrating 70 years of ITV while once again making a vital difference in transforming the lives of vulnerable children and young people.”

Dame Carolyn McCall, CEO of ITV, added:
“I am delighted that ITV will be marking our 70th birthday with Variety, the Children’s Charity, and celebrating seven decades as a world-class broadcaster and streamer.”

Past ceremonies have featured performances from Katherine Jenkins OBE, Beverley Knight MBE, Gary Barlow OBE, Marisha Wallace and the cast of Mamma Mia. Previous award winners include Alfie Boe, Naomi Campbell, Abbey Clancy, Dame Joan Collins, James Corden OBE, Simon Cowell, Peter Crouch, Edward Enninful OBE, Kate Garraway MBE, Kelly Hoppen CBE, Michelle Keegan and Sheridan Smith OBE.

The Variety Club Showbusiness Awards are produced by Green Room Ents Ltd for Variety, the Children’s Charity.
