Last week, GLAMOUR's Women of the Year Awards, sponsored by Samsung Galaxy Ring, returned for 2024 – and we went bigger than ever to honour the activists, record-breakers and trailblazers leading the charge for women's equality.
Taking place on Tuesday 1st October at Raffles London at the OWO, the GLAMOUR Women of the Year Awards, sponsored by Samsung and the new Galaxy Ring, welcomed the year's biggest names in music, television, film, and sport who have all used their immense platforms to advocate for female empowerment.
The mighty Katherine Ryan, award-winning comedian, writer, actor and presenter, returned to host the illustrious awards ceremony in central London – for the fourth year in a row, we might add.
Simone Ashley, Chloé Bailey, and Pamela Anderson were just some of the illustrious winners of the night, posing ahead of a gorgeous display by Blooming Haus florals:

It wouldn't be an A-list event without plenty of free-flowing champagne, would it? Not to mention vodka, tequila and wine. You get the picture.
Thanks to Volcan tequila, Belvedere vodka, Laurent Perrier, Whispering Angel, Cloudy Bay, and Terrazas de los Andes for keeping the party going. And we honestly would not have coped without VOSS water keeping us all hydrated, too.
Ahead of the inspiring event, Deborah Joseph, European Editorial Director at GLAMOUR, said: “2024 has already been both a momentous and difficult year for women around the globe, with so many incredible activists speaking truth to power, as well as deeply concerning areas of regression in women’s rights.
“While we still have so much to fight for, it’s even more important to champion the gamechangers, advocates, and feminist icons who are making the world a better place for women. I can’t wait to toast them all at our annual GLAMOUR Women of the Year awards.”
Samsung's Annika Bizon, Director of Marketing, Omnichannel & Head of Ireland – MX Division, said, “We’re thrilled to be partnering with the GLAMOUR Women of the Year Awards for a third year, an iconic event that spotlights some of the most incredible women driving real change in today’s world.
“I have personally been inspired by so many of the women who have been honoured, and I cannot wait to see more of these trailblazers take the stage.”
Reckitt joined as a supporting partner for GLAMOUR's Women of the Year awards – from Finish to Durex and Dettol to Gaviscon; Reckitt is home to the world's best-loved and trusted hygiene, health and nutrition brands – some of which are featured in the GLAMOUR goodie bags.
We were also joined by Renault, the Official Automotive Partner for the Women of the Year Awards, who escorted the likes of Vick Hope to the ceremony.
The Women of the Year Awards were celebrated with a series of special digital covers and videos, which were released before and after the event.
