With 13 categories, the awards honour the hard work and high standards across the aquaculture community, from pioneering management practices to farm level innovation, and from gold standard suppliers to trailblazing technology.
On top of prizes for Rising Star, Unsung Hero, Farmer of the Year, Supplier of the Year, Best New Start Up and, new for 2024, Producer of the Year, the awards recognise the best collaborations, most sustainable enterprises, stunning innovations, impressive community initiatives, and consistent champions of animal welfare.
The popular award for Outstanding Contribution is a chance for the sector to vote for the person they think has transformed the world of aquaculture, whether through long years of service, game-changing ideas, or as a leading communicator and industry ambassador. The winner will be chosen by the sector and announced on the night.
There will also be the Judges' Special Recognition award, selected by the judging panel from the awards entries, for the candidate or company demonstrating admirable commitment and a responsible approach to aquaculture.
Joining the team of judges this year is independent aquaculture auditor and consultant Malcolm Johnstone, a well-known and respected sector figure through his work over many years with RSPCA Assured.
Host on the night will be the incomparable Scottish comedian Fred MacAulay, a star of radio and television with appearances on Mock the Week, Have I Got News, I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue, Just A Minute, and The News Quiz, as well as his own long-running BBC Radio Scotland show.
Cheri Arvonio, event director said: "The Aquaculture Awards bring everyone together for an evening of celebration and entertainment, while highlighting the sector's most remarkable people.
"We would like to hear about all those who have gone the extra mile in the past 12 months, be they industry leaders, dedicated farm staff, technical visionaries, or organisations making scientific breakthroughs and driving the sector forward."
The awards, which are free to enter and open to the entire industry, are staged by Diversified Communications, organisers of Aquaculture UK, the premier UK event for aquaculture stakeholders, held biennially at the Macdonald Resort in Aviemore.
The deadline for awards entries is Monday, February 12, and finalists will be revealed by the judges on March 6.
