How to Watch Irish Creators in TikTok Awards - Goosed.ie

The first-ever UK and Ireland TikTok awards take place on December 3rd. The inaugural awards will feature some of Ireland’s biggest and best-known TikTok creators. Here’s everything you need to know for the night.

What are the TikTok Awards?

TikTok has launched the TikTok Awards to celebrate the platform’s creators across multiple markets. Ireland and the UK have been placed together as one such market. Much like Spotify Wrapped or the now-retired YouTube Rewind, the TikTok Awards also allows the social media platform to look back at the year, 2024.

The 2024 UK and Ireland TikTok Awards will be sponsored by Sky. However, they will only be streamed on TikTok itself, on December 3rd. The event will be hosted by Michelle Visage and include a range of live performances, including the Sugababes.

Voting is now closed on the awards, but you can still tune in on the night to see who wins what.

TikTok Award Categories

The 2024 TikTok Awards will look to celebrate creators across a wide variety of categories, including:

Creator of the Year Video of the Year Rising Star Creator of the Year Breakthrough Artist of the Year Voice for Change Education Creator of the Year Fashion & Beauty Creator of the Year Entertainment Creator of the Year Sport Creator of the Year Food Creator of the Year Travel Creator of the Year High-Quality Content Creator of the Year Irish Creators at the TikTok Awards

Amongst the creators up for awards, there are several categories with strong Irish representation.

Meg Hughes

Louth-native Meg Hughes is nominated for Entertainment Creator of the Year. Her followers get to enjoy excellent opinions on the movies, new and old, intertwined with aesthetically pleasing cosy content. While best known for entertainment, Meg also covers other topics like skincare routines and diaries.

James Doyle Fitness (Protein Bor)

James Doyle, better known as Protein Bor, has enjoyed a meteoric rise to TikTok fame. Starting out with fitness tips and protein bar reviews, he now has over 1 million followers and creates ever-evolving content styles. James has been nominated in the headline, “Creator of the Year” category.

Pint of Plane

I’m delighted to see Eoin Reardon up for “High-Quality Content Creator of the Year”. Eoin has over 1 million followers who tune into his page for his woodworking videos. He specialises in using older hand tools after starting his page in lockdown. His content appeals to the masses by providing a few minutes to just get lost in a simpler time with absolutely no nonsense.

The King of Chemo

In 2019, at the ripe age of 31, Iain Ward found out that he had stage 3 brain cancer. He wasn’t going to take this lying down and set out to raise the most money ever for fighting cancer. Through lockdown, he would livestream wild home workouts and set himself an increasingly difficult physical challenge.

The King of Chemo is nominated for “Voice for Change” at the 2024 TikTok Awards.

Remember, the 2024 TikTok Awards will be streamed live on December 3rd at 8pm, only on TikTok.
