After receiving over 16,000 nominations and 84,000 public votes, the SLMA has narrowed down thousands of artists, bands, venues, festivals, and industry contributors into shortlists across 14 categories.

Now, a panel of 40 judges from across Scotland’s music industry will select the winner and runner-up in each category. The winners will be revealed during a prestigious awards night at Glasgow’s Classic Grand Ballroom on Wednesday, 11th December.

Ross Coutts, from Xfire.Live, the company behind the awards, shared his excitement: “It’s fantastic to see such a strong shortlist emerge from across Scotland’s vibrant live music scene. We’re thrilled to be able to celebrate – and crown the 2024 winners at the awards ceremony next month.”

More details about the awards night will be released soon, with organisers promising a memorable celebration of Scotland’s live music talent.

Tickets are available now at skiddle.com
