“In their various ways, the GQ Men of the Year Award winners have kept all of our spirits up throughout one of the most difficult years and we are very much looking forward to celebrating with them – and hosting a great party.”

The awards feature categories including the lifetime achievement gong, best band and the game changer prize.

Nick Sargent, publishing director of British GQ, said: “After the unprecedented year we’ve had, I’m thrilled to announce the return of the GQ Men of the Year Awards for 2021 as a live event.

“Even though our virtual event last year was a huge success, it’s exciting to be able to come together again in person to celebrate the incredible talent who best represent GQ and continue to push the boundaries on the world’s cultural stage.

“It will be a night to remember.”

The GQ Men of the Year Awards will take place on September 1.
