As the capstone to a busy 2024–25 Broadway season, the Tony Awards, held June 8, 2025, at their longtime home, Radio City Music Hall, and hosted by Cynthia Erivo, honored the top shows and actors.
Maybe Happy Ending, awarded best musical, was the biggest winner on the night with six Tonys. Buena Vista Social Club, Purpose and Sunset Boulevard—whose lead actress, Nicole Scherzinger, also took home an award—were a few of the shows that also received recognition in various categories.
