BBC Sports Personality of the Year Award 2023: When is it and who are the nominees?

The annual awards ceremony, honouring a host of sportspeople with various prizes culminating in awarding one of them the BBC Sports Personality of the Year, is celebrating its 70th or platinum anniversary in December 2023. Established in 1954, Spoty does not necessarily reward the best sporting performance of the year but, as a public vote, recognises the ‘personality’ who has most captivated the British public over the past calendar year.
