The awards celebrate Scottish-born or Scottish-based influencers – either individuals or influencer collectives - who have shared compelling, informative, original and creative content throughout 2022.
Special recognition will also be made to those influencers who "define inspiration and whose social endeavours are underpinned with a positive contribution to diversity, equality, and/or inclusivity".
The first-of-its-kind event for Scotland will involve a reception and afterparty - with Glasgow electronic duo Illyus & Barrientos on hand to provide the tunes.
The awards take place on Sunday, October 23. Tickets, costing £45pp, are available now here
