Wales, get ready to turn up the volume on creativity. The KLAT Awards 2025 are officially in motion — and it all kicks off with a launch party that promises to be as bold, brilliant, and boundary-breaking as the young talent it celebrates.
🎉 KLAT Awards 2025 Launch Party 📅 Sunday 7 September · 🕖 7–10pm · 📍 Rhostio Coffee Roasters, Cardiff
Expect an evening of art, music, and pure inspiration as KLAT Magazine invites you to celebrate the next wave of Welsh creatives. From DJs to digital artists, spoken word to short films, this is your chance to meet the minds shaping culture today — and tomorrow.
Founded by KLAT Magazine, the KLAT Awards are more than just trophies and titles. They’re a movement. Rooted in independence and powered by storytelling, KLAT champions creativity in all its forms, spotlighting the voices, visions, and values of young changemakers across Wales and beyond.
🧠 What’s it all about?
The KLAT Awards were created to recognise the innovation, imagination, and cultural contributions of young people across the arts, media, and community. It’s about amplifying emerging voices, building legacy, and celebrating youth excellence where it truly belongs — centre stage.
