Reality TV Awards
The National Reality TV Awards, also known as Reality TV Awards or NRTA, is an annual award show produced by the IEG Global and National Media Group. Founded in 2011, the NRTA became the first-ever awards ceremony to launch in both the UK and US to celebrate the cast and crew from the reality TV industry.
The NRTA was the first of its kind to re-define the categories that make up Reality Television into specific genres. The National Reality TV Awards UK launched at the O2 Arena in London in 2011, whilst the US version launched in Los Angeles at the Crescent Hotel, Beverly Hills in 2012.
The NRTA celebrates achievements of established cast and crew from the reality television industry — connecting talent with opportunity and industry recognition at the highest level.
