We issue e-tickets to all guests; each ticket will have its unique QR code and be scanned upon arrival. As we are unable to send multiple e-tickets to the same email address, we will need the email address of each attendee/guest so that the ticket can be issued.
Guests will not be able to gain access to the event without their own personal ticket which will be linked to their details.
All e-tickets will be sent approximately one week before the event.
Tickets are transferable. If a guest cancels, please let us know by emailing nmgevents@ntmllc.com. We will cancel their ticket and issue a new one to their replacement.

Winners will be announced at the M&IT Awards 2026 on Friday 18 September at JW Marriott Grosvenor House London.
There are no speeches on the night; winners will be called up on stage to collect their award and have their picture taken with the host. However, Gold winners will have the opportunity to say a few words in an exclusive interview with our editorial team immediately after they’ve come off the stage after collecting their award.
The winners of our 15 voted for categories are decided by the votes of event organisers, which are then independently audited by the Audit Bureau of Circulations to determine the winners. The winners of our four judged categories (Chris Peacock Rising Star of the Year, Personality of the year, M&IT Editor’s Award and the M&IT Elevate Award), are judged by M&IT Editor, Paul Harvey, in conjunction with our independent panel, who have distinguished themselves in their field, and demonstrate exceptional industry knowledge, experience, and vision. We hold our judges to the highest standards of fairness and integrity.
