Overview

The 8th Annual Side Hustle Honors® is not just an awards show. It is a live taping experience.

This year’s theme, Under Construction, honors builders in motion. The founders refining their craft after hours. The operators testing ideas in real time. The creatives turning vision into viable ventures.

Meet us in the lab as we record this year’s ceremony in front of a live studio audience. Expect intentional production, focused energy, and a room filled with entrepreneurs shaping the future alongside their primary careers.

Side Hustle Honors® celebrates side hustlers who are leveraging skill, strategy, and sacrifice to build sustainable impact across industries. From technology to wellness, media to property innovation, this stage recognizes those who are doing the work before the world fully sees it.

This is a celebration of momentum. Of discipline. Of builders still building.
