Radio Academy Hall of Fame


The Radio Academy is a registered charity dedicated to 'the encouragement, recognition and promotion of excellence in UK broadcasting and audio production'. It was formed in 1983 and is run via a board of trustees, currently chaired by Chris Burns, Head of Group Operations for BBC Radio.

The Daily Telegraph has described the Radio Academy as "the industry's most powerful body".

The Radio Academy runs a range of events throughout the year, including the annual Radio Festival. It ran the former Radio Academy Awards up until 2014.

The Academy also runs regular Masterclasses for young people who would like to work in radio. In addition, the Academy's Branches regularly hold local events across the country.

The Radio Academy awards a number of honours each year, including induction into its UK Radio Hall of Fame, Fellowships, the John Peel Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music Radio, the PPL Music Icon Award, the Local and Regional Lifetime Achievement Award, the Most Played Artist on British Radio and the 30 Under 30.

In 2016 the Radio Academy gave out a number of prizes called Audio and Radio Industry Awards (ARIAS). Previously the Academy issued the Radio Academy Awards.
