An award show becomes exciting by building the nominations well. Work with a maximum of three to five nominees per category. Reveal the winner only at the very last moment. And bring in a host who deliberately raises the tension. The festive feel comes from production. Lighting that changes with each category, music that accompanies winners to the stage and confetti at the announcement. Three practical tips. Have nominees record a video message as a teaser. Include a People's Choice Award where the audience gets to vote. And always end with the most prestigious award as the finale.
