After a star-studded and powerful awards ceremony in 2022, GLAMOUR’s Women of the Year Awards in partnership with Samsung are back for 2023 and we’ll be honouring the gamechangers and feminist heroes who inspire us every damn day.
Taking place on Tuesday 17th October at One Marylebone, the GLAMOUR Women of the Year Awards, in partnership with Samsung and the latest innovative Galaxy Z Flip5 smartphone, will once again welcome a whole host of special guests, honourees, and presenters. We will recognise some of the year’s biggest names in music, television, film, sport and media; and will be shining a spotlight on women who are truly game-changing in their field.
This week, GLAMOUR unveiled our Women of the Year 2023 global honouree and UK Impact Award winner, America Ferrera. America, 39, is a producer, director, award-winning actress, and co-founder of Harness and Poderistas, two non-profit organisations for social change. In her cover interview, America reveals how she has united her two passions – acting and activism – to impact society. Alongside her as a global honouree is Millie Bobby Brown, 19, an award-winning actress, beauty founder, producer, bestselling author and the youngest ever appointed UNICEF Goodwill ambassador. In her interview, she talks about love, learning to speak out, and preparing to say goodbye to the show that made her a global superstar. We will be announcing our full winners and their cover interviews in the coming days.
GLAMOUR UK also recently announced Katherine Ryan, Canadian comedian, writer, actor and presenter as the host of this year’s GLAMOUR Women of the Year Awards in partnership with Samsung; it’s her third time presenting for us.
Whether they were challenging the patriarchal male gaze through their work or fighting for the representation of marginalised communities both on- and off-screen, or using their voice to challenge society’s systemic rape culture, these Women of the Year make our world a better place – and we thank them for it. And whilst we can’t reveal our winners yet, you won’t be disappointed.
Deborah Joseph, European Editorial Director at GLAMOUR said: “With so many incredible women who have stepped up, raised their voice and challenged the status quo in 2023, there is plenty to celebrate at this year’s GLAMOUR Women of the Year. We can’t wait to bring together the changemaking women from all walks of life for our annual celebration of feminism in all its forms.”
GLAMOUR Women of the Year Awards is a globally recognised celebration of trailblazing female forces, with celebrations taking place around the world. GLAMOUR US will host its 33rd annual culture-defining event on November 7th, GLAMOUR Germany will host its inaugural event on the 2nd November, and GLAMOUR Spain and Mexico will host their events on October 26th and November 9th respectively.
