Christine Lampard is set to host the 10th Anniversary of the Royal Television Society Northern Ireland (RTS NI) TV Awards in Belfast later this year.
The Newtownards broadcaster, who is known for her appearances on Loose Women, Lorraine, Dancing on Ice, Daybreak and The One Show has said she is looking forward to "coming home" to host the RTS NI Awards at Titanic Belfast on Tuesday, November 11.
She also presented last year’s gala concert marking 100 years of the BBC in Northern Ireland, A Century of Stories, which is shortlisted in the Entertainment category at this year’s RTS NI Awards.
Speaking ahead of the awards, Christine Lampard said: “I’m really looking forward to coming home to host this year’s RTS NI Awards at Titanic Belfast and celebrating the brilliant content being made in Northern Ireland which is enjoyed by audiences worldwide.
"I remember our first RTS NI Awards back in November 2015 at The MAC, when I had the pleasure of presenting Richard Williams with a special award to recognise Northern Ireland Screen’s outstanding contribution to the industry. This year’s 10th Anniversary Ceremony promises to be another wonderful occasion to shine a light on the exceptional talent and programmes being produced in Northern Ireland.”
Zoe McGivern, Chair of the RTS NI Awards Committee said: “We are delighted Christine can join us to mark ten years of the RTS Northern Ireland Programme Awards. She played a key role at our inaugural ceremony so it is wonderful to have her back in Belfast to announce 19 award winners next month, more than double the number of trophies we presented when we started out, which reflects the importance of the people and the productions driving our thriving creative sector."
The RTS Northern Ireland Awards are supported by BBC Northern Ireland, Northern Ireland Screen, Channel 4, TG4 and RTÉ, with Ka-Boom as headline sponsor and the Awards Ceremony takes place on Tuesday 11 November at Titanic Belfast alongside the 2025 Belfast Media Festival. The finalists are listed on the RTS website.
Tickets for the awards ceremony are available to book on the RTS NI website.
