Bodyshop Magazine has today confirmed that the 29th edition of its hugely popular Bodyshop Awards 2025 will be held at The Belfry in Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham on 20-21 October 2025.
The high-profile Bodyshop Awards programme – the oldest, most-coveted and only fully independent celebration of the best the crash repair industry has to offer – will again be held together with our all-important 30 Under 30: Rising Stars initiative, which is now in its ninth year, as well as the daytime Bodyshop Expo which has gone from strength to strength and promises to be even better than the incredibly successful 2024 edition.
Date set for Bodyshop Awards 2025
Bodyshop editor Simon Wait said: “It will be great to be back in the Midlands and especially at the new venue, The Belfry, which will give our guests and us a range of exciting add-on activities to sample, including spa and weekend packages, outdoor games and team-building exercises, not to mention three fabulous golf courses, one of which has hosted the Ryder Cup multiple times.
“Planning for the crash repair industry’s favourite event is already well under way, and this year we’ll have a few more surprises in store for the industry. But more about that later.”
Nominations for both the 30 Under 30: Rising Stars in partnership with 3M and the Bodyshop Awards 2025 opened on 1 December 2024 and will remain open online until 31 March 2025. Entries have been pouring from across the sector and supply chain.
Record-smashing entries
Simon Wait added: “The quality of the entries we have received so far showcases the brilliance of the talent the repair industry has within its ranks. Every year, for both the Awards and 30 Under 30, we’ve enjoyed a steady upswing in submissions. Last year there was a deluge, and we’re already on track to smash that record.”
