The Y Selar Awards (Welsh: Gwobrau’r Selar) are awarded annually for the best Welsh language rock and pop music, by the Welsh language music magazine, Y Selar. The awards ceremony is the only one specifically for Welsh language music.
Background
The awards were first given out in 2010. Awards are given in ten categories, with voting taking place via the Y Selar website, until the publication date of the March issue of the magazine.
Every February since 2014, the awards event has taken place at a 'live' event at Aberystwyth University, initially in front of an audience of 500, increasing to 700 in 2015. The organisers claimed an audience of 1,000 in February 2016.
Nominations are invited until December each year, for the twelve categories, from which a long list is chosen by the awards panel. A public vote then takes place using a Facebook app.
