The About You Awards are coming up again and the German Instagram scene is looking forward to the ceremony of Germany’s biggest influencer award. Although the event itself is still quite young and the awards have only been presented since 2017, the spectacle will even be broadcast on Pro7 this year. But who is nominated and how do you get tickets?
About You Awards – The most important award ceremony for influencers
About You itself is an online shop that has been active in Germany since 2014 and has its headquarters in Hamburg. The special concept includes the personalized offer, which is specifically adapted to the previous buying behavior of the user. About You has always worked closely with influencers to address a young audience in particular with their concept. Only since one year, About You also awards prizes in categories such as lifestyle, fashion, beauty or fitness. The event went through the roof due to the opulent application of many influencers and is even broadcast on Pro7 this year.

The event Behind the Scene – what happened before the award ceremony
The event was not only marked by the presentation of the awards and the subsequent celebration of the winners, but even before the shooting happened backstage a lot. Since only invited guests had access, and these consisted almost exclusively of influencers, About You organized a whole program in the run-up to the show. A Great Hall filled with booths from sponsors who came up with a lot for the guests. From the wheel of fortune at the Got2Be booth to self-designed t-shirts at Levis, personalized socks at Nike or a ball pool at tigha.
McDonalds was also represented with the new McFlurry varieties and Oreo with the new Thin & Krispy. There was a goodie bag on top. In addition to small treats and great drinks at the bar, there was even a service from Hermes, with which you could simply have the goodie bag delivered to your home. The entire entertainment program, which was themed around connecting over canapés and prosecco, took up a lot of time before the show. After the shooting of the show, the same premises with DJ and Absolut Bar were available again to heat up the aftershow party. A thoroughly successful event that was probably a lot of fun for all guests!
