EYNTK Ahead Of This Year’s Hayu InstaStar Awards

The Hayu InstaStar Awards 2025 are just around the corner – and you know we’re only dying for the big day!

On Saturday, September 20 in Dublin’s five star Anantara The Marker Hotel, Ireland’s biggest and brightest content stars will indulge in a night of celebration – gladrags and all.

The Hayu STELLAR InstaStar Awards are all about celebrating the creators who entertain us, who make us smile, and who educate us on a daily basis.

It’s about the ones who share tutorials, the ones who crack jokes, and the ones who make us want to put our phones down and go make a pot of creamy ramen immediately.

Voting is still open (for now!) for this year’s awards, so get choosing your favs if you haven’t already.

In the mean time, here’s everything you need to know about the Hayu InstaStar Awards 2025.
