2022 Anywhere Awards
Along with the always popular audience vote for each region of the festival, this year we partnered with amazing creative people and organisations to sponsor awards as well as a number of awards judged by industry, Anywhere Festival staff, reviewers and photographers.
The awards give more than just the kudos; they provide mentorship, expertise and resources for producers and performances makers to acknowledge the incredible performances we've experienced and to take their work to the next stage.
