QTCinderella’s Streamer Awards unveils 2023 nominees

Nominees have been unveiled for the second annual Streamer Awards, and voting on winners is open to the general public.

The QTCinderella-founded awards show launched in 2022, and for its inaugural year named winners in 27 categories, with winners selected by a combo of votes from the public and a panel of judges. The awards ceremony streamed live on Twitch from The Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles; it became Twitch’s 45th most-viewed broadcast, reaching peak concurrent viewership of 381,436 people.

This year’s show will hand out 26 awards. It dropped four categories from last year—Best Super Smash Bros. Streamer, Best ASMR Streamer, Best GTA RP Streamer, and the Legacy Award—and added three new ones for 2023: Best Soulslike Streamer, Best Art Streamer, and the Hidden Gem Award.

Nominees were selected by a public vote that opened in January.

QTCinderella and Valkyrae will host this year’s ceremony March 11 at The Wiltern in Los Angeles. The awards’ red carpet hosts, announced Feb. 20, include Hasanabi, Ludwig, SqueeX15, and Sweet Anita.

Voting for this year’s winners is now open here.
