• 1 – Rules for Evaluating Finalists and Awarding Prizes

1. The Competition Committee, which conducts an independent analysis of applications, evaluates candidates using a scoring system assigned by the Committee.

2. To qualify for the final stage and have a chance to receive an award, nominees must obtain a minimum average score of 8 out of 10 points.

3. The scoring system includes the following evaluation criteria:

* Innovation and uniqueness of actions – innovative approach, breaking patterns, the distinctive nature of the initiative.

* Social impact and inspiration for others – scale of influence, long-term effects, positive environmental change.

* Professionalism, authenticity, and an ethical approach align with the values of the Stars Night Awards, including transparency and quality of action.

* Recognition and sustainability of achievements – long-term significance and continued impact after the project’s completion.

4. Calculation of results:

* Each juror awards points on a scale from 1 to 10 in each category.

* The final score is the average of the scores given by all jury members.

* The Competition Committee may grant more than one award in a given category if multiple finalists achieve comparable, high scores.

5. The Stars Night Awards 2025 prizes will be awarded transparently, and the results will be announced during the official Gala ceremony.

6. Clause regarding the Competition Jury of the Stars Night Awards 2025

* The Competition Jury of Stars Night Awards 2025 consists of 14 independent members, representing various sectors – including media, business, social organisations, and the cultural sector.
* The Jury assigns individual scores to each nominee within their respective category, based on previously established evaluation criteria.
* The average number of points received by a candidate determines the awarding of the Star Symbol statuette.
* The composition of the jury remains confidential until the day of the gala to avoid speculation and ensure transparency of the process.
* The members of the Jury will be officially presented on 11 October 2025 during the awards ceremony in Liverpool.

7. Awards granted as part of the Stars Night Awards are purely symbolic and honorary. They do not carry any material value, are not intended for commercial trade, and do not constitute income within the meaning of tax regulations.
Upon receiving sufficient points from the Jury, Stars Night Awards are granted exclusively to individuals who have declared their attendance at the official award ceremony and purchased a ticket for the event.
Failure to comply with this regulation results in the forfeiture of the right to receive the award, protecting the organiser from so-called "award ghosts" (absent laureates).
The regulation is consistent with the practice of professional international events.
