Save the date! The Business to Arts Awards 2026 will take place on Monday, September 7th, at the National Concert Hall.

The Business to Arts Awards are hosted annually in Dublin with over 500 attendees from across the business and arts sectors.

It is a wonderful kick-start to the autumn season, with a buzzy post-summer catch-up feeling. The awards ceremony includes drinks and canapé pre-and-post ceremony receptions, presenting an exceptional networking experience throughout the evening.

Our awards are unique in that they feature a mix of awards and live performances from some of Ireland’s emerging artists, showcasing the diversity of the sector and up-and-coming talent.

The ceremony is presented by journalist and broadcaster Dearbhail McDonald, with individual awards presented by leaders in the business community from our Awards partner organisations.

In 2025, our guest of honour was Patrick O'Donovan, T.D. Minister for Culture, Communications and Sport.
