The Fishing News Awards 2025

Save the date! We are delighted to announce that the 2025 Fishing News Awards will once again take place at the prestigious Chester Hotel in Aberdeen, on the evening of Wednesday, 7 May.
With award categories for fishermen working in the over-10m and under-10m sectors, young and trainee fishermen, new and refurbished vessels, ancillary companies and service providers, technical innovations and fishery harbours, as well as the Sustainability Award and the Lifetime Achievement Award, this is the only event dedicated to recognising achievement, innovation and success across the UK and Irish commercial fishing industry.
Our host for the celebratory awards evening will be acclaimed Irish comedian Ed Byrne. The evening will start with a drinks reception at 6.45pm, followed by a bespoke three-course meal featuring the best of UK-caught seafood. Ed Byrne will then take the stage to entertain guests and reveal the 2025 award winners – after which the celebrations and socialising will continue until late. Book your tickets here! It promises to be a night to remember.
