GAT Awards
Celebrating excellence in Gippsland theatre since 1992, the GAT Awards recognise outstanding achievements in performance, production, design, and community contribution across our region. Each year, judges assess productions from member companies to honour the artistry and dedication that make Gippsland theatre thrive.
Judging Guidelines
Our judging process is designed to be fair, consistent, and reflective of the diverse work produced across Gippsland. Independent judges attend productions throughout the year and assess them against established criteria. Full judging guidelines will be published here soon.
Submitting Your Show for Judging
Member companies are invited to submit their productions for judging each season. Submission details, deadlines, and requirements will be available here shortly. This ensures all eligible productions are included in the annual awards cycle.
