We are thrilled to officially announce our Headline Sponsor and Charity Partner for the 2025 GNI MAG Awards!

Daniel May, Director of GNI Magazine, said “We’re incredibly proud to reveal that our headline sponsor for the 2025 GNI MAG Awards is none other than Kremlin & Union Street.
From the beginning of GNI almost 15 years ago, Kremlin and Union Street have been at the heart of our community and our journey.
Over the years, they’ve won countless awards and been a consistent force for inclusion, visibility, and joy within Belfast’s LGBTQIA+ scene.
To now be partnering with them on this scale feels both exciting and deeply fitting. We’re looking forward to celebrating the heroes of our community with them by our side."
The 2025 GNI MAG Awards will take place on Saturday 15th November at the Crowne Plaza Belfast, promising a spectacular evening that honours the individuals, businesses, and organisations making a real difference to the lives of LGBTQIA+ people across Northern Ireland and beyond.
Brian and Richard added: "At Kremlin and Union Street Bar, diversity and inclusion aren’t just values, they’re the heartbeat of everything we do. As a proud LGBTQ+ bar, nightclub, and entertainment venue in the heart of Belfast, we’ve always aimed to create spaces where everyone feels seen, celebrated, and safe. Supporting the GNI MAG Awards is a natural extension of that commitment, and we’re honoured to stand alongside others working hard to make lasting change."
"Last year we attended what can only be described as an unforgettable evening. So when the opportunity came up to get involved in a bigger way, we jumped at the chance. We’re delighted to be the headline sponsor for the 2025 Awards and can’t wait to play our part in making this year’s event even more special. Good luck to all afflicted!"
We’re also proud to continue our longstanding partnership with The Rainbow Project as our official Charity Partner.
While they couldn’t join us at the official photo call, they shared the following message "We are so pleased to return as Charity Partner of the GNI MAG Awards. This partnership has been in place since the awards began, and watching the event grow year on year shows just how needed and valued it is within the community.
It’s an important opportunity for us to raise much-needed funds, while celebrating the incredible resilience and achievements of LGBTQIA+ people across Northern Ireland. We’re grateful to be part of it once again."
