The EN Indy Awards is the only awards programme dedicated entirely to the independent exhibition and events community. Every person in the room is a decision-maker operating in your market.

Sponsorship puts your brand at the centre of an evening the independent organiser community genuinely values, with packages covering the awards ceremony, category sponsorship, and the wider campaign. With an expanded category list and the ceremony taking place at Bloomsbury Big Top on 3 December 2026, this is the most significant platform the EN Indy Awards has offered to date.
