The Q Awards were the UK's annual music awards run by the music magazine Q. Since they began in 1990, the Q Awards became one of Britain's biggest and best publicised music awards. Locations for the awards ceremony included Abbey Road Studios and near the end of its life, The Park Lane Ballroom.

One of the more notable events of the awards was the ceremony of 2004, at which Elton John accused Madonna of cheating fans by miming on stage, after she had been nominated for a Best Live Act award.{{cite web|url=http://www2.qawards.co.uk/history.html|title=History of the Q Awards|last=Official Q Awards Website|year=2007|publisher=EMAP Performance Online|access-date=2008-12-19|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090313053310/http://www2.qawards.co.uk/history.html|archive-date=2009-03-13|url-status=dead}} The 2001 event, was somewhat notoriously notable for Phill Jupitus stretching out the time it took to announce the "Best Producer" award, with him exclaiming "Best Producer?.... 'Would you like a cowbell in that?'", before being told off camera to get on with announcing the winner.

The Q Awards included many awards recognising a lifetime of achievement, rather than achievements over the year in question. In its last few years, the 'lifetime' awards have usually outnumbered the 'current' awards.

The awards came to an end when the magazine itself ceased publishing in 2020, blaming the COVID-19 pandemic. The 2020 awards ceremony would have been held at the Roundhouse and seen a performance by Paul Heaton and Jacqui Abbott.{{cite news |last1=Savage |first1=Mark |title=Paul Heaton praised for 'lovely' Q Magazine gesture |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-54485919 |access-date=10 October 2020 |work=BBC News |date=9 October 2020}} When it was announced that the magazine was closing, Heaton was revealed to have donated a substantial amount of money to the magazine's former staff members. As thanks, and for his contributions to music as a songwriter, Heaton was presented with a final Q Award.

Criticism

At the 2006 Q Awards, Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner criticised the choice of Take That for the "Idol" award. Commenting on the winners of the night, he said:

{{Cquote|A lot of people make jokes about having awards for no reason just for the sake of having awards, and pretending they were good when they weren't. I'm not old enough to know a lot of them, but even I know Take That were bollocks.{{cite news | url= https://www.theguardian.com/media/2006/oct/31/pressandpublishing.musicnews | title= Oldies are golden at the Q awards | location=London | work=The Guardian | first=Mark | last=Brown | date=2006-10-31}}}}
