Winners to be announced at the ceremony.
In addition to the public nominations, which are then scored across two judging rounds via a digital platform followed by an in person judging day, the GTAs will also have the ‘Lifetime Kudos Awards’, which recognise those who have made outstanding contributions to the sport and what will be the ultimate GTA Award to win.
