We started the Emerging Creator Awards to celebrate creators who are doing the work and making their name on YouTube and across the creator content landscape.
In 2024, we’re doing it again. Just like last year, we’ll start with write-in nominations; identify your favorite creators in any of our categories starting May 27, 2024. On June 24, we’ll announce our Emerging Creator Award finalists and open up the voting. Winners will be announced July 8.
