The inclusive Manchester awards event - powered by pride, driven by community.

The I Love Manchester Awards – Celebrating Manchester’s Best

The official I Love Manchester Awards celebrates the heart of our city with a contemporary show that champions people, sparks civic pride and brings our brand values to life.

The I Love Manchester Awards welcomes around 800 key fiugures for a truly unforgettable night. Our bi-annual celebration is powered by pride and driven by community.

With no detail spared, it’s probably the biggest Manchester awards event the city has ever seen – the crescendo of Manchester’s awards season.

A night created to celebrate the spirit of the city and the people who make it special.

At its heart, the I Love MCR Awards is about recognising the everyday heroes of Greater Manchester – the individuals, groups, and projects quietly making a real difference.

For well over a decade, I Love MCR has stood for unity, kindness, and civic pride. These awards bring that mission to life on stage, offering a powerful platform for inspiring stories.

We believe the people who shape this city deserve to be seen, heard, and celebrated. Whether it’s a community champion, a volunteer, or a grassroots project bringing people together, these stories matter.

 

Receiving an I Love MCR Award is more than a moment of recognition – it’s something meaningful, backed by a trusted city-wide brand with a powerful origin story.

 

Every penny raised on the night is donated to local charities, including Mustard Tree (1135192), helping fund vital work and projects across the region. 

 

This isn’t just an awards show. It’s a lasting tribute to the heart of our city – its people. The I Love Manchester Awards returns to Manchester Central in 2027. Nominate now and join us for another unforgettable night of celebration and pride.

 

A legacy event designed to live forever.

Iconic venue

Manchester Central is an award-winning, iconic venue in the heart of the city. Formerly known as the GMEX, it was opened by Her Majesty The Queen in 1986 and has hosted legendary acts including The Smiths, The Happy Mondays, Oasis and Take That.

Just a short walk from Manchester’s top hotels, the venue is easily accessible by train, tram and road. It’s just over two hours from London by rail, with direct links from major UK cities. Once in Manchester, The Bee Network makes getting around simple and convenient.

"Incredible night!!! The event celebrates everything Manchester has to offer, from community and culture to hospitality and business. Can't wait for next year already!"

“There is nothing else like it in the city. The biggest and best awards - that’s not just food and drink - I’ve ever been to. It’s a show more than just a ceremony. If this year’s event is even half as good as the last one, it will be awesome!! Do not miss it.”

To keep the I Love Manchester Awards fair, balanced and true to our values, we’ve brought together an independent panel of experts and respected community voices.
