The ISU Skating Awards is an annual awards ceremony organized by the International Skating Union (ISU) to recognize outstanding achievements in Figure Skating.[1] The awards are presented in a variety of categories: Most Entertaining Program, Most Valuable Skater, Special Achievement, Lifetime Achievement, Best Coach, Best Choreographer, Best Costume, Best Newcomer.[1]
A long list of candidates is selected by a Selection Commission which is submitted to a public and media vote. The public vote counts for 2/3 while the media vote counts for 1/3.
Following the public / media vote, three nominees in each category are announced and finally the Award winners are decided by an expert international jury in six categories.[2] The winners of the Lifetime Achievement Award and the Special Achievement Award are decided by a Selection Commission and not submitted to the public / media vote.
The Awards Ceremony was held online for the first three edition. However, the 2023 ceremony was a standalone event in Zürich, Switzerland for an on-ice live show in partnership with Art on Ice and live streamed on the Skating ISU YouTube channel.
As the 2020/2021 editions were exclusively live streamed, and the 2022 edition postponed, the 2023 ISU Skating Awards took place at the Hallenstadion in Zürich in partnership with Art on Ice.[3]
