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]

History

[edit]

The ISU Skating Awards was first announced in 2020. It was created to recognize the outstanding achievements of Figure Skaters from around the world.

The inaugural ISU Skating Awards was initially planned to be held in Montreal, Canada, in conjunction with the ISU World Figure Skating Championships 2020[4] which were subsequently cancelled due to the global pandemic.[5] It was therefore held online and hosted by Tanith White and Charlie White.[5] The following categories have been presented throughout the years[6]

  • Most Valuable Skater
  • Most Entertaining Program
  • Best Newcomer
  • Best Costume
  • Best Coach
  • Best Choreographer
  • Lifetime Achievement
  • Special Achievement (since 2023)

The ISU Skating Awards has continued to grow in popularity in subsequent years.
