Musician Shaun Ryder is rumoured to be among the celebrity guests at this year’s ScaffEx25 Awards Evening.

The Happy Mondays frontman is believed to have been invited to the event, which will take place at Manchester Central on 12 September.

If confirmed, Ryder would join a line-up of guests including Clare Balding, Alex Jones and comedian Leigh Francis.

Industry celebration

The awards ceremony is part of ScaffEx25, a two-day exhibition organised by the National Access & Scaffolding Confederation (NASC).

The main exhibition runs on 11–12 September and will feature product demonstrations, panel discussions and networking opportunities for scaffolding and access professionals.

The awards evening on the final night will bring together contractors, suppliers and industry leaders to celebrate achievement across the sector.

No official confirmation

Event organisers have yet to confirm Ryder’s attendance. Official announcements have so far focused on the exhibition programme and awards categories.

ScaffEx25 is expected to attract thousands of visitors, with the awards providing the climax of the event.
