GMA CONFIRM AWARDS VENUE

Following the announcement of the Industry Awards 2025 and #GroundsWeek dates last week, the Grounds Management Association (GMA) has now confirmed Anfield Stadium as the host venue for the 2025 GMA Industry Awards ceremony.

The event will take place on Thursday 13 March 2025 at the iconic home of Liverpool Football Club.

Having previously been hosted in November alongside SALTEX, the awards moved to Headingley Stadium last year and will now be held at the grand setting of Anfield Stadium in 2025. Known for its rich history and vibrant atmosphere, the GMA believe Anfield will provide a spectacular backdrop for this prestigious occasion.

The GMA Industry Awards recognise excellence in grounds care across the professional, amateur, and voluntary sectors. The awards ceremony brings together many of the UK and Europe’s leading practitioners and suppliers to pay tribute to the best in the sector and will kick off the GMA’s annual awareness campaign, #GroundsWeek, which will take place between 17 - 23 March 2025.

In addition to the awards ceremony, the evening will feature a three-course meal, entertainment, and the opportunity to network with industry peers. 

Geoff Webb, CEO of the GMA said, “The change of venue promises a fresh and exciting backdrop for one of the biggest events in the sports turf industry calendar. We look forward to recognising and celebrating the contributions of both professionals and volunteers in such an iconic setting.”

The Association says details regarding the awards categories along with the how to enter or nominate someone deserving will be announced soon.
