The Grounds Management Association (GMA) Industry Awards will return March 12, 2026, hosted at the iconic Edgbaston Stadium, home of Warwickshire County Cricket Club.
Now in its 15th edition, the awards champion the best in grounds care including everyone from grassroots volunteers to top-tier professionals, recognizing the individuals and grounds teams who power sport at every level.
First launched in 2009, the awards have become a much-anticipated fixture in the grounds management calendar. Having previously been held at standout venues including Headingley Stadium and Anfield, and formerly a centerpiece at SALTEX, the 2026 ceremony promises another unmissable evening of celebration.
The night will feature a prestigious ceremony, three-course meal, entertainment and the chance to network with some of the sector’s most respected figures. It brings together professionals, volunteers, suppliers and industry organizations from across the UK and beyond to honor the vital work being done at every level of sport.
