It’s back, baby, and bigger than ever! For a third successive year the definitive awards show dedicated to entertainment and popular culture will return to London’s iconic Roundhouse, Camden, on Thursday 20 November, 2025.

The newly-christened ZYN Rolling Stone UK Awards will include four stellar live music performances and the induction of 12 very special award winners into the Rolling Stone UK Hall of Fame, all overseen by a host befitting of the occasion.

Previously attended by a galaxy of music stars – ranging from New Order, Yungblud, Ezra Collective and Fontaines D.C. to Jessie Ware, Nile Rodgers, Skepta and Maisie Peters -featured live performances have included Jade, Louis Tomlinson, English Teacher, The Last Dinner Party and Confidence Man.

Further guests have included leading industry names, invited media and artists from across film and television including David Tennant, Jonno Davies, Daniel Kaluuya and Toby Jones. 

More than 500 guests will gather to see a top crop of talent pick up their awards, but rest assured that Rolling Stone UK’s presence in print and digital forms and across social will mean that those not in the room aren’t at risk of missing out either.

The event is newly-supported by ZYN – the world’s No.1 nicotine pouch brand* that offers a smoke-free, tobacco-free alternative in a variety of flavours and nicotine strengths for adult nicotine users – following a year-long partnership with Rolling Stone UK.

Darren Styles OBE, publisher of Rolling Stone UK, says: “Our incredible live awards event is always a high point in Rolling Stone UK’s year and the challenge, always, is to come back bigger and better each time. Given the scale of what we achieved with our debut show and the follow-up, that’s a tall order, but we have laid some spectacular plans to come…”

Baris Ozcan, Director of Smoke-Free Products at ZYN (UK), says: “Our commitment to music and our partnership with Rolling Stone UK run through our year like a red thread, from  activating at major festivals and now, celebrating those at the top of their game. ZYN is all about moments for adult nicotine users, and as smoke-free pioneers, we are here to enable adult nicotine users who love music to keep their rhythm, in any environment.”

Nominations for the awards will be announced shortly, with the winners unveiled on the evening of 20 November and celebrated in a special Awards edition of Rolling Stone UK magazine, published the following morning.

*PMI reported global shipment volumes and in-market sales estimates of nicotine pouch units, from December 2023 to December 2024.

ZYN is not risk free and contains nicotine, which is addictive. Only for use by adult nicotine users.
