At the end of the year we like to take the opportunity to showcase everything that makes our groups great by combining live acts on stage with awards for the groups that have really stood out.
Some of the things we’ll be recognising include the best newcomer to our growing list, the best collaboration between two or more groups and the best give it a go session of the year.
