Creative Awards

The prolific north creative awards recognise the organisations, teams and individuals putting the north on the map in the creative sectors.

On 25th June 2026, the Prolific North Creative Awards are back, on a mission to bridge the gap between the North and Scottish creative ecosystems, and to celebrate the audacious, spotlighting groundbreaking ideas that inspire the next generation of creative visionaries.

With the support of industry titans and trailblazers, we build a stage for the region’s most innovative and daring talent.
