Bookings are open for 6–9 May at Hotel Ritual Torremolinos, with new events, returning favourites and nominations opening on 31 December. The countdown to GRABBYS Europe 2027 has begun. From 6–9 May, actors, creators, industry professionals and fans will gather at Hotel Ritual Torremolinos, Málaga, Spain, for four days of entertainment, collaboration and celebration. From the pool to the Purple Carpet, the programme brings fresh ideas to the experiences that make the GRABBYS such a memorable gathering. Expect standout shows, opportunities to create together and an awards ceremony celebrating achievement across more than 30 categories. ## Stay at the Heart of the GRABBYS Hotel Ritual Torremolinos is the official venue hotel, placing guests at the centre of the event. Room reservations are available through the [GRABBYS App](https://thegrabbys.app) Register or sign in, select GRABBYS Europe and follow the booking steps to secure your accommodation. Venue hotel reservations include breakfast and a Weekend Wristband for each registered occupant, making a room booking the best-value way to enjoy the event. Staying elsewhere? Weekend Wristbands are also available separately through the app, so guests with alternative accommodation can join the celebration. Developed in partnership with ModelBOARD, the app also brings together reservations, wristbands, event descriptions, start times and attendee connections. ## Four Hosts, Two Celebrations of Achievement Austin Ponce and Matt Vasquez return to host the GRABBYS Awards Show, bringing their chemistry, humour and stage presence to the presentation of the iconic Pillars of Achievement. Supported by JustFor.Fans, the ceremony recognises outstanding work through public voting and an international judging process. Meanwhile, Justin Jett and Serg Shepard host CreatorVision by GRABBYS, celebrating the ambition, storytelling and creativity behind feature-length studio and creator productions. ## New for 2027: Spa Time and an English Tea Party Making its debut, GRABBYS Spa Time offers a welcome moment of indulgence before the cameras start flashing. Across four exclusive one-hour sessions, invited guests can choose from a range of wellness treatments designed to leave them refreshed, revitalised and ready for the Purple Carpet. For a different kind of afternoon escape, the Classic English Tea Party brings Earl Grey tea, homemade cakes and delicate cucumber sandwiches—with the crusts cut off, naturally. Expect polite conversation and a leisurely taste of an English tradition. Both are sponsored events with admission exclusively by guest list. ## Poolside Fashion and Your Moment in Front of the Camera Inviting blue water, poolside games and entertainment hosted by the Gay Couple set the scene for a GRABBYS Pool Party with serious style. This year’s Fashion & Fashion Shoots theme brings two of Europe’s top fashion photographers poolside, equipped to capture incredible pictures of party guests. Bring your look, strike your pose and claim your moment on the “White Board”. You could leave with the best photographs in your collection. Fashion continues on the carpet with the GRABBYS Fashion Show, produced by legendary film director Macho Jim. More than 30 of the world’s top creators will showcase outfits specially created by Europe’s top clothing brands, supported by the new GRABBYS Angels. ## Friday Night Belongs to the GRABBYS GRABBYS Friday Night Live with Pablo Bravo brings the wit, glamour and unpredictability of American late-night television to the GRABBYS stage. A true showman, multi-award-winning creator and an inspiration within the creator community, Pablo will welcome an intriguing mix of personalities for revealing interviews, candid stories and lively exchanges. Expect incredible guests, engaging conversations and the occasional controversial opinion. The Friday Night Main Stage Show promises another burst of GRABBYS imagination. While this year’s theme is still taking shape, the talented stage team is preparing breathtaking creativity, top artists and high-energy entertainment, supported by our sponsors. And, of course, the ever-popular GRABBYS dancers will bring their “hot as hell” routines and barely-there outfits to a stage built for unforgettable moments. ## Nominations Open 31 December: Start Preparing Now Your work deserves consideration—and you can nominate yourself.
