Vote for the 2025’s Online XR Awards!

Mathieu G.

The end of the year always heralds a form of synthesis around projects shown at festivals and/or distributed on the XR market. And at XRMust, the idea is to let you have your say! The site may have evolved in 2025, but that’s only the beginning: look out for new announcements in 2026 to better support immersive creators and producers worldwide. The deadline for the XR Awards 2025 is midnight on December, 31!

The awards presented on XRMust are the result of our annual monitoring, and the help of a programming committee who work with us to select a shortlist of nominees. These awards are not a reflection of the immersive industry as a whole, but a partial reward for projects seen at festivals or released online in recent months.

This year the jury was (still very international!): Ondřej Moravec (Director, Curator, Czech Republic), Lazaros Boudakidis (Curator, Greece), Andrès Jarach (Curator, France) AND Agnese Pietrobon (Italy) + Karen Cirillo (Turkey, USA) + Mathieu Gayet (France) for XRMust. 😘
