The 70th Annual Tony Awards took place on 7 June 2026 at the Radio City Music Hall in New York. The ceremony celebrated the best of Broadway's latest productions, honouring outstanding achievements in theatre, music, and dance. The event saw a host of A-list celebrities walk the red carpet, including Rose Byrne, Sarah Paulson, and Daniel Radcliffe.
The Tony Awards are considered one of the most prestigious awards in the theatre industry, with winners often going on to achieve international recognition. This year's event saw a record-breaking number of nominations, with 23 categories and over 200 nominees. The ceremony featured performances from various Broadway shows, including Hamilton and The Lion King.
Rose Byrne, who attended the event with her husband Bobby Cannavale, stunned on the red carpet in a custom-made gown from designer Prabal Gurung. Sarah Paulson, meanwhile, opted for a sleek black dress from designer Michael Kors. Daniel Radcliffe, who has been making waves in the theatre world with his performances in The Cripple of Inishmaan and The Play What I Wrote, looked dashing in a tailored tuxedo from designer Tom Ford.
The Tony Awards are broadcast annually in the UK on the Sky Arts channel, allowing British audiences to catch up on the ceremony. The event is also available to stream on various platforms, including Amazon Prime Video and YouTube.
With the Tony Awards now behind us, attention will soon turn to the British theatre industry, with the BAFTA TV Awards and Brit Awards scheduled to take place later this year. The UK's thriving theatre scene continues to produce talented individuals who go on to achieve international recognition.
