Submit your nominations for the 2025 Best of 225 Awards

Best of 225 is turning 20 in 2025! Decide now which local businesses will receive awards in our anniversary edition of Best of 225.

Since its launch in 2005, 225 Magazine has spotlighted the city’s most beloved restaurants, bars, people and businesses in the annual Best of 225 Awards. The Capital Region’s original reader’s choice poll, Best of 225 has grown every year over the last two decades, adding more categories and drawing new voters.

Head over to 225batonrouge.com/bestof225 to nominate all your picks for this year’s awards.

Write-in nominations will run from Dec. 9, 2024, to Jan. 31, 2025. Nominations are the first part of the awards process—and are arguably the most important, because they determine which people and businesses will end up on the ballot next year. They’ll be followed by voting from Feb. 25 to April 8.
