Shining a spotlight on women in media

The Gracie Awards recognize exemplary programming created by women, for women and about women in all facets of media and entertainment. They also acknowledge the individuals who have made inspirational contributions to the industry.

Named after the late Gracie Allen, the Gracie Awards acknowledge outstanding team leadership and individual achievement. The Gracies focus on women who are making positive change and who further the discussion of what a fulfilling career in media looks like.

The Call for Entries for the 51st Annual Gracie Awards is expected to open in October 2025. And plan now to attend the 51st Annual Gracie Awards Gala on May 19, 2026, at the Beverly Wilshire (A Four Seasons Hotel) in Beverly Hills, California and the 51st Annual Gracie Awards Luncheon on June 16, 2026, at Cipriani on 42nd Street in New York City. Please email gracies@allwomeninmedia.org with questions.
