Nominations Revealed For The 2021/2022 Season Pantomime Awards  Image

The UK Pantomime Association has announced the nominations for The Pantomime Awards in association with Butlin's.

During the 2021/2022 season, 46 judges saw 207 pantomimes across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland travelling from Aberdeen to Aylesbury, Belfast to Bognor and Cardiff to Canterbury.

The Awards Ceremony will take place on Tuesday 19th April 2022 at the Trafalgar Theatre in London's West End hosted by Christopher Biggins and marks the inaugural awards from the UK Pantomime Association, which gained charity status in February.

Future plans for the charity include 'In Conversation' events with leading pantomime practitioners and the establishment of an annual 'Panto-Con' (Pantomime Convention) comprising workshops, masterclasses, exhibits and demonstrations. The UK Pantomime Association will also seek to expand its website as a hub for those interested and involved in pantomime.
