The Ivors Academy is the leading organisation for songwriters and composers. As a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to supporting music creators, we protect their rights, empower them with the knowledge and tools they need to thrive and celebrate their craft.

We have presented Ivor Novello Awards since 1956 to honour the craft and achievements of songwriters and composers. Recognised as the most prestigious music awards, they are announced at The Ivors and The Ivors Classical Awards. They are a benchmark of distinction for songwriters and composers and regularly feature in UK and international media.
