Manchester City Council have opened their Manchester Culture Awards 2019 for nominations, they want to hear about last year's events, people, projects and shows. Large or small, international or local, this is your chance to nominate the people, organisations and groups that you think made a creative buzz in Manchester between 1 April 2018 and 31 March 2019. 
For these awards, your nominee must be involved in one or more of the following areas:
- heritage
- visual art
- music
- theatre
- performance
- dance
- film and broadcast media
- literature
- digital art
- photography
- craft
Nominees must be based in the city of Manchester (not Greater Manchester, but the area covered by Manchester City Council) or have a track record of delivering activity for the benefit of the people that live in or visit the city, or that benefits the local economy.
After judging, the top nominees in each category will be invited to a prestigious dinner and awards ceremony in November, at which the winners will be announced.
