The Sector Awards have a new name: welcome to the Gala of the Auras! On 8 September, we're rolling out the red carpet once again for the Flemish performing arts. TheaterFestival, Acteursgilde, the Toneelschrijfprijs and city theatres NTGent, KVS and Toneelhuis are joining forces once more for a festive evening celebrating performing arts talent in all its glory.

During the ceremony, we honour the makers and performers who brought the performing arts to life over the past season. The Auras for Most Valued Performance +35 and -35, Most Valued Ensemble and Most Valued Visual Design will be presented, alongside the Roel Verniers Prize and a Career Award.

The Gala of the Auras is the annual moment where the sector celebrates. The evening will close with a reception hosted by Yugen and Brasserie de la Senne.
