DIVA - German Entertainment Award
The DIVA has been awarded annually since 1991 to recognized personalities from the world of entertainment as well as for artistically and commercially successful entertainment products. The award ceremony traditionally held in January in Munich with invited guests and industry representatives has established itself as an event in the entertainment business and has been well received by the press. The 20th DIVA award ceremony took place on January 26, 2010 in the Hotel Bayerischer Hof in Munich under the patronage of the Bavarian Prime Minister Horst Seehofer.
organizer
The prize was originally designed as a "VideoWinner" for successful products in the video / DVD sector. Since 2005, the categories have been expanded to include cinema, music and TV movies. The DIVA award is organized by "Great Moments Verlag", Munich / Ottobrunn. Ulrich Scheele is the managing partner of the publishing house. Scheele is also known as the founder of Entertainment Media Verlag (1980), of which he was a managing partner until 2008.

history
The first presentation of the VideoWinner, as the award was called in the early years, was supposed to take place on January 18, 1991, but had to be canceled due to the outbreak of the First Gulf War. Two months later, the winners of the first hour were honored on a small scale, including a. Stefan Aust for “Deutschland im Herbst 89” and René Kollo and Wolfgang Sawallisch for the HDTV opera production “ Der Ring des Nibelungen ”. Since then, the gala, which has grown in importance every year, has taken place in four different locations: From the beginning in the Prinzregententheater , it went to the Kaisersaal of the Munich Residenz until the event in the Deutsches Theater in 2002 and changed its name: 2003 to DIVA - The German Video Award and in 2005 in DIVA - The German Entertainment Award. Since January 2009 the DIVA awards have been held in the Hotel Bayerischer Hof in Munich.
