Variety hosted its sixth-annual Hitmakers celebration looking back at the year in music and recognizing the writers, producers, publishers, managers and executives who helped make—and break—the 25 most-consumed songs of the year, as measured by Luminate. Hosted by DJ Cassidy at City Market Social House, honorees in attendance included Dua Lipa (Hitmaker of the Year), Imagine Dragons (Group of the Year), Kim Petras (Innovator of the Year), Omar Apollo (TikTok Future Icon Award) and Selena Gomez (Film Song of the Year) with presenters H.E.R., Jack Harlow and Rita Wilson. TikTok, IHG Hotels & Resorts, and Luminate were premier partners of the event. With Variety, TikTok presented a Future Icon award to newly GRAMMY®-nominated Best New Artist Omar Apollo. IHG Hotels & Resorts returned to Hitmakers for the second year and helped brew up a fantastic morning with a craft espresso bar and delicious drinks and talent was able to “Guest like we Guest” with IHG-branded cups. Luminate’s CEO Rob Jonas presented the Breakthrough Artist Award at the event. This year’s honoree was Latto for her hit single “Big Energy.”
