2026 MLMA NOMINATION ELIGIBILITY

*MUST READ PRIOR TO VOTING*

In order to help prevent inactive nominations we have setup some qualifications:

  • The name of each award is “of the Year”, which means 2025, not 2026.

  • 75% of bandmates must be born in or living in Manitoba.

  • Industry professionals must be born in or living in Manitoba.

  • Anyone who promotes hate speech, either on social media or in their music, will be disqualified.

  • A band or artist’s music must match the genre or subgenres.

  • Setlists performed must be primarily original music (unless under category of Cover or Tribute Band) and must have performed live or had a music release between January 1st – December 31st, 2025.

NOMINEE DISQUALIFICATIONS, DECLINATIONS, & NON-RESPONSE

Nominations that do not meet the various criteria set forth may be disqualified and therefore will not be added to the public voting system. Bands and individuals have a right to decline their nomination, in which case they will not be added to the public voting system. If bands do not reply to the email regarding their nomination, a nonresponse will be considered a declination, and they will not be added to the public voting system.

Please fill out the form to the best of your knowledge.
