The 2025 NoPro Audience Awards Nominees

It’s that season again — AWARDS SEASON — and this year’s crop of nominees for the NoPro Audience Awards just might be the strongest one yet.

We polled the NoPro Review Crew to come up with this list of three nominees each in our different coverage areas, and added a new “Tour” category along with Las Vegas and the SF Bay Area, dropping last year’s “North America” category.

Now through March 5th the backers of No Proscenium will have the opportunity to vote on the nominees and determine the winners of this year’s audience awards.

Of course, it’s not too late to become a backer and make your voice heard.
