Mad Awards

The Mum and Dad (MAD) Blog Awards are the UK’s biggest and most exciting awards for parent blogs.

Last year, more than 350, 000 nominations and votes were received in the sixth annual MAD Blog Awards, and over 7, 000 parent blogs took part in the awards.

This year, we’re going bigger than ever, and inviting you to tell us about your favourite blogs in a whole bunch of categories, from lifestyle to food, designed to showcase the range and quality of content being generated by UK parent blogs.

Thousands of blogs are nominated each year, but just six blogs in each category will make the finals, attending a gala awards ceremony in London. This year our awards ceremony takes place on September 16th at the Royal Garden Hotel, London, and will be attended by our award sponsors, judges and specially invited guests.

Here’s how it works:

Stage 1: We invite bloggers and their readers to nominate, and share with us their favourite blogs across a range of categories, covering everything from parenting to food and photography.

Stage 2: Five bloggers in each category with the most nominations, along with one blogger selected by our judging panel, will be shortlisted as finalists.

Stage 3: We invite the public to vote for their winner in each category, with the exception of our Blog of the Year award, which will be judged by our judging panel.

The winners of the awards will be revealed at a red-carpet awards ceremony to be held in London during September, attended by finalists, judges and sponsors, along with a few specially invited guests.
