Celebrating artistry, innovation, and legacy across the creative industries

The Honours

The Creative Industry Honours Gala recognises the visionaries shaping beauty, fashion, and culture, from the artists behind the artistry to the architects who move the industry forward.

Explore the categories for each night below, and nominate the individuals or teams who define creative excellence in their field.

PLEASE NOTE: The Lifetime Creative Achievement and Lifetime Achievement awards will be decided by the Founder and the CIHG Executive Team.
