The result, a prestigious award title for this year’s winning artist/designer and the respective music artist.

Final winners for 2023 will be revealed at an Awards event on 11^th January 2024 at The Hari in Belgravia, London in association with Broken Clock Vodka and The Pathfinder

Art Vinyl Founder Andrew Heeps comments, “After 18 years of hosting the Best Art Vinyl Awards, we felt it was time to give the final decision to the organisation’s growing network of experienced and highly talented artists and designers, whom amongst them have been responsible for some of the most memorable album covers of all time. The panel members in previous years narrowed down the shortlisted album artworks of the year, but the public vote would decide the winning record cover. Giving the final decision back to the experts was the natural progression for an Art Prize that has grown in status each year for the many creatives in the music industry.”
