Revamped & ready to launch
We are proud to reintroduce the APEX Awards to the world. Our team has been working to ensure that the 2025 APEX Awards provide an in-depth experience of how powerful the indie music community is – from the individual members to the MAGIC we create together.
The Nomination Period will remain open from January 1st – November 15th, BUT there’s a few things you should know BEFORE submitting your picks!
We’ve revamped our entire platform to create a more inclusive, valuable and organic structure that includes recognition for both performing and non-performing creatives.
ONE Nomination paves the way

Nominations accepted from January 1st – November 15th.
The APEX floor is now open to creatives throughout the indie music communities and genres – regardless of affiliations.
We’ve created strict criteria guidelines to showcase what each award category represents.
In addition to meeting the category criteria, Nominees will be required to formally accept their nomination for EACH category before they are considered active in the running.
We’ve got BIG THINGS in store this year … one nomination is the ticket to a FULL YEAR of festivities!
