TikTokMichelle Visage and Sugababes star at inaugural ceremony celebrating TikTok's community in the UK and Ireland
Last month, we announced the first TikTok Awards in the UK & Ireland with presenting partner Sky, Europe’s leading media and entertainment company. These awards are our way of recognising the incredible creators who invest their time and creativity to make the TikTok ecosystem truly unique.
Today we are revealing the awards shortlist, which reflects the diverse range of creators thriving on TikTok and inspiring our community every single day. Whether it's the sporting icons of tomorrow, rising stars in the fashion and beauty industry, passionate foodies, or breakthrough entertainers, they've all found a home on TikTok.
We're also thrilled to announce that the TikTok Awards on Tuesday, 3 December will be hosted by internationally renowned television personality, radio show host, artist and author Michelle Visage, will feature performances from the Sugababes, breakthrough artist nominee LeoStayTrill and Bimini. TikTok starlets Sarel and Charley Marlowe will act as our red carpet and roving reporters.
Throughout the evening, there will be bespoke beverages provided by the official drinks partner Pepsi MAX, behind the scenes content from creators and partners and exclusive red carpet interviews from our nominees. You can watch the whole event LIVE from 8pm on the @TikTok_UK and @HelloSky accounts.
So without further ado, it's time to reveal the TikTok Awards shortlist, as we hand over the reins to the community to decide on the winners!
