Last chance to enter our 2025 Yorkshire Rainmaker Awards

This summer 2025 marks the return of the Rainmaker Awards, with the deadline for entries tomorrow – Friday 28 March.

The Rainmaker Awards will bring together Yorkshire’s deals community to celebrate the best deals and teams from the past 12 months, as voted for by the corporate finance community themselves in a one firm, one vote system.

A casual dress code swaps the traditional tuxedos and long speeches for an evening that focuses on recognising and celebrating the best work from the year.

The night provides an opportunity to network with the leading individuals and firms in the region.

It takes place on 5 June at New Dock Hall, Leeds.

This year we’re opening up our entry system. Don’t worry though we’re still keeping the same community one vote per firm voting system. Click here to visit our event page where you can download an entry form. And click here to book a ticket for the awards night.
