Spotify’s Creator Milestone Awards Honor the Latest Slate of Record-Breaking Podcasts
A little over a year ago, Spotify introduced the quarterly Creator Milestone Awards to celebrate the incredible growth and success of podcasts around the world. Now, we’re thrilled to announce the winners from the final quarter of 2025.
The awards are given to podcasts that reach specific streaming thresholds on Spotify, and recipients receive a physical plaque to commemorate the achievement. The celebration also includes features in our on-platform editorial hub, social media spotlights, and an out-of-home campaign in Los Angeles.
Join us in congratulating the latest class of Creator Milestone Award winners.
Gold
Reaching 500 million streams is a monumental achievement, and we’re welcoming one of the biggest names in true crime to the Gold tier:
Silver
Our Silver award recognizes podcasts that have surpassed 250 million streams on Spotify. This slate of honorees spans the worlds of sports, true crime, and comedy:
Bronze
The Bronze award celebrates a diverse and global group of creators who have reached 100 million streams (or 50 million in emerging markets). We’re excited to congratulate this wide-ranging list of shows:
Our commitment to creators is set against an exciting backdrop for the industry. Podcasting recently earned its first-ever recognition at the Golden Globes, where Good Hang with Amy Poehler, from Spotify’s The Ringer, won the inaugural award. As the medium’s influence grows, we’re proud to support and celebrate different voices at the center of it all.
