The Independent Podcast Awards 2024 shortlist revealed

The judges have judged, the votes have been counted, and the nominations for the 2024 Independent Podcast Awards have now been announced.

With well over 400 entries received in this year’s awards, hundreds of UK podcasts have been recognised, across a broad field of subjects.

The Educational category was so popular that it now features four different awards.

Last year’s double-winner – Celebrity Catch Up: Life After That Thing I Did – is nominated again, along with a few other returning shows, and a whole host of new talent too.

The complete 2024 shortlist can be viewed here.

Winners will be announced at a ceremony at Kings Place in Kings Cross, London on Wednesday 23 October. Tickets are priced at £49 each, and are available now from the Kings Place box office.

Guests will be treated to drinks on arrival, followed by the awards ceremony, and afterwards the party will continue in the Acast Arms.

Event partners for 2024 are Acast, Adelicious, Advertising Week, AudioUK, Captivate, Podknows Podcasting, Rusty Quill and Spotify. The Media Partners are Podcasting Seriously Fund, Pod Bible and Podnews.

An Independent Podcast Awards room has been created on the Apple Podcasts featuring this year’s shortlist and last year’s winners all in one place.

Entries for the 2025 Independent Podcast Awards open early next year.
