Welcome to the website of the Gold Badge Awards

Over the past 35 years the Gold Badge Awards have celebrated the achievements of an outstanding group of men and women, from broadcasters, agents, arrangers, producers, performers, influential writers, publishers and managers to a host of other sometimes unsung heroes on whom the music industry depends.
