King Tut’s Wah Wah Hut has been at the heart of the Scottish music scene for 33 years and acts as a springboard for musicians just starting out in their career. It’s down to music fans across the country who have supported the venue that we can continue to celebrate the rich music scene in Scotland, and welcome back established acts who have a strong affinity to the venue.”
The OVO Hydro received their award with the following statement: “We are thrilled to receive this recognition amongst so many incredible venues across the UK. 2022 was a special one for us at OVO Hydro, as we welcomed fans in record numbers and had our busiest year of shows across multi-genres. As Scotland’s home of live entertainment, we strive to deliver an exceptional experience for every visitor and winning this award through public vote cements the backing of our brilliant audience. Thank you to Ticketmaster for the nomination, and of course to all of the fans who voted – the venue’s success is driven by your support. We look forward to welcoming back the best fans in the world in 2023 as we gear up to celebrate 10 years of the OVO Hydro!”
