Stream Awards 2025: Ukraine will choose the best Twitch and YouTube streamers. How to vote for your favorites

Ukraine will be choosing the best streamers of the year for the second time.

After a successful debut last year , the organizers of the project — Streams Charts and StreamAdvisor — officially announced the start of the second season. The partners of the award in 2025 are Logitech G, Pepsi and Lay's.

The Stream Awards 2025: Ukrainian Edition will be held according to the following schedule:

January 26 - March 2, 2026: Announcement and online voting
early March 2026: online awards ceremony, hosted by Mykhailo “ Olsior ” Zverev, one of the most prominent Ukrainian talents in esports broadcasting and analytics and host of the Maincast studios. The exact date and details of the ceremony will be announced separately.

To vote for your favorite streamers, you need to:

Go to the award page .
Log in to your Twitch account on the award page (a Twitch profile is a mandatory requirement to participate in the vote).
Vote for your favorites in each category. If your favorite streamer wasn't nominated, you can do so in the category "Community Choice" - it allows you to support any Ukrainian-speaking streamer with at least 100 hours of broadcasts per year. Note: One account can vote only once, it is impossible to change the choice.

In 2025, the award includes 14 nominations. Candidates are still determined automatically by Streams Charts metrics, but this year viewers have two new options:

Add your favorite to any nomination if it is not on the shortlist.
Nominate any Ukrainian-speaking streamer in the "Community Choice" category — a special nomination where the composition of participants and the winner is determined solely by viewer activity, without reference to statistical indicators.

“The Stream Awards last year became a logical stage in the development of the live streaming industry in Ukraine. The market continues to grow: the number of unique channels and the volume of viewing of Ukrainian-language content on streaming platforms is increasing. In the first six months of 2025 alone, Ukrainian-language broadcasts generated a total of over 172.6 million hours of viewing — 3.2% more than in the same period last year. We believe that the Stream Awards is an important point that helps structure the market, increases its visibility, and contributes to the development of Ukrainian live streaming as a mature and transparent segment of the digital economy,” said Artem Odintsov, co-founder and CEO of Streams Charts.
