2025 Pioneer of the Year Dinner

We are honored to have award-winning actress, producer, singer/songwriter, and entrepreneur Kate Hudson as the 2025 Pioneer of the Year!

The event will be held on October 8, 2025 at The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California.

A tradition for more than 75 years, the Pioneer of the Year Award is bestowed upon esteemed and respected members in the motion picture industry whose leadership, service to the community, and commitment to philanthropy are exceptional. It is among the most prestigious honors in the entertainment industry and the philanthropic community. All proceeds raised at the event benefit WRMPPF’s Pioneers Assistance Fund, the only charity of its kind in the nation, which provides financial assistance and supportive counseling to individuals in the motion picture distribution and exhibition community in times of need.
