The 2025 Streamer Awards (also referred to as The 5th Annual Streamer Awards) was the fifth edition of the annual Streamer Awards, honoring the best in live streaming in 2025. The ceremony was held on December 6, 2025, at the Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles, California and was hosted by QTCinderella and Maya Higa. [1]
The red carpet was hosted by Sketch, KatieB and Stable Ronaldo. A fashion panel will be hosted by Biqtch Puddin', Godoy and Rock M. Sakura. A Spanish co-stream was hosted by Quackity, with fanfan serving as the event's floor host. Prezoh and JHBTeam served as backstage hosts. Their interviews with the winners will be posted to YouTube.

Nominations were opened on October 25 and closed on November 8. [3] With the nominees being announced on QTCinderella's Twitch stream and voting opening on November 16. [4] Prior to the voting closing on November 29, QTCinderella revealed that 1,090,358 people had voted as of November 25. [5]
For this edition, five categories were added (Best Brand Partner, Best Marvel Rivals Streamer, Best Reality Streamer, Best Vertical Live Streamer, Best Stream Duo) and two categories were added back from previous editions (Best Music Streamer & Best Minecraft Streamer)
Nominations [6] were reworked for this edition, with streamers only being able to be nominated in their two categories with the highest nomination. This rule does not apply to major categories, such as Streamer of the Year or Legacy Award. [7]
In response to security incidents involving livestreamers earlier in the year, such as an assault against Emiru at TwitchCon, QTCinderella described security at the event as "aggressive" compared to other events. [8]
