The Bisou Awards are the official award show for the Belgian influencer landscape. The awards aim to celebrate influencers, their impact on society and their inspiring role for many thousands of followers. The Bisou Awards include individual influencer awards in various content categories from Fashion and Style to Education, and brand awards that celebrate exceptional synergies between influencers and brands.
Absolutely! We encourage you to nominate your favorite creators, but you are more than welcome to nominate yourself as well. As long as the nominee meets our criteria (Belgium-based, active during the past year, and demonstrating real influence), they are eligible for a Bisou Award.
The third edition of the Bisou Awards will take place on October 15, 2026. This year, we’re moving to the capital to take over Docks Dome Eventhall in Brussels. Get ready for a night of tactile overload in one of the city’s most impressive venues.
Jury members score each project (1–10) based on the following weighting:Strategy & Objectives – clarity, relevance and insight (20%)Creativity & Originality – ideas, influencers, tone of voice (20%)Execution & Platform Use – visual quality, platform fit, storytelling (20%)Results & Impact – reach, engagement, conversion or social value (25%)Category Fit – relevance to the selected award (15%)
The selection of the Bisou Award winners starts with the public nomination phase. Anyone can nominate their favorite creator or themselves, provided the nominee meets our eligibility criteria: they must be at least 18 years old, Belgian or based in Belgium. We look for influencers who have been consistently active over the past year, posting at least once a month and demonstrating clear interaction with their community.Once the nominations are in, our expert jury and selection committee curate a shortlist of ten nominees per category. This selection is based on seven core pillars which are strategy, execution, creativity, impact, authenticity, synergy, and engagement. In the final stage, the winners are determined by audience votes and after that our jury will go through all the results. Some specific categories may be judged exclusively by either the jury or the public.
