AWARD CATEGORIES
- Sydneysider of the Year: Celebrating someone who has made an extraordinary contribution over the past year to making Sydney the best city in the world (considering people from across the many sectors that make our city tick, including planning, mobility, economy, resilience, culture and equity). 
- Young Sydneysider of the Year: An up-and-coming Sydney leader who is already making a significant impact on our city
- Unsung Hero: Celebrating the people who go under the radar, yet play an essential role in making Sydney the best city in the world
- Project of the Year: A transformative project that shifts how Sydney functions at scale – across transport, housing, technology, sustainability, culture, equity, or systems of governance. These projects shape the future of the city and its people, often impacting multiple suburbs, regions, or sectors.
- Local Project of the Year: A community-driven project that improves everyday life at the neighbourhood, precinct, or suburb level. These projects are rooted in local identity and respond directly to the needs, values, and voices of the people who live there.

JUDGING
The 2025 Awards will be judged by local leaders who are passionate about Sydney and have deep knowledge of our city, its people, and the unique challenges we face. Judges will be announced later this year.
