MOBO Awards 2026 - 30th Anniversary of the MOBOs

About the show

The MOBO Awards are coming to Manchester for the very first time! On Thursday 26 March 2026, Europe’s biggest and most influential celebration of Black music and culture will take over Co-op Live for an unforgettable night of electrifying performances, powerful tributes, and culture-shaping moments.

2026 is also significant because it marks 30 years of the MOBO Organisation, three decades of shaping culture, championing talent, and creating iconic moments. This will be a historic celebration you won’t want to miss!
