Prince Harry’s Invictus Games is launching a new awards show, which will take place in London in September this year. The Invictus Spirit Gala Dinner & Awards is inspired by the former Endeavour Awards, “celebrating the remarkable individuals and organisations who embody resilience, service, and the unconquered spirit at the heart of our global community”.
To participate, the Invictus Games Foundation states you do not need to have taken part in an Invictus Games activity to be eligible, but nominees must either be members of the wounded, injured, and sick (WIS) service personnel or veteran community who have used sport or adventure as part of their recovery journey.
Or you can be from the wider community as long as you have had a positive impact on the recovery of wounded injured and sick service personnel and veterans through sport.
The Awards will be presented at the inaugural Invictus Spirit Gala Dinner & Awards, presented by ATCO, this September.
There are five award categories:
An Invictus Resilience Award will be awarded to individuals or organisations whose determination and courage have driven extraordinary achievement through adversity.
An Invictus Community Award will celebrate those whose generosity, teamwork, and commitment have empowered others and strengthened the global Invictus community.
An Invictus Community of Nations Award will honour champions of sports recovery who advance resilience, inclusion, and the Invictus Spirit nationally, or across borders.
An Invictus Champion Award will acknowledge exceptional philanthropic commitment by individuals who have personally given or secured significant support for the global Invictus Movement.
There will be a fifth award, selected by the judging panel from the overall shortlist, to recognise a single individual whose impact spans multiple categories and who truly embodies the essence of the Invictus ethos.

Nominations opened January 23, 2026 and will close on March 8, 2026. The event will take place in September, 2026.
The judging panel will be made up of representatives from the Invictus Games Foundation, the awards gala presenting partner ATCO, and Prince Harry.
In July 2027, Birmingham will host the Invictus Games. Featuring 550 competitors from 25 nations in a celebration of wounded, injured, and sick service personnel and veterans.
Staged at the National Exhibition Centre (NEC) and Sandwell Aquatics Centre, the event will focus on recovery and community, marking the Games’ return to the UK.
