Ballon D'or 2023: Nominations, Time, Date, Venue

POSTED ON October 30, 2023 •   Football      BY Lawrence Omoge

The Ballon d'Or, one of the most coveted awards in the world of soccer, is about to be awarded in 2023.

Annually, France Football magazine honors the season's best player with this prestigious award. Who will emerge victorious in 2023 is a mystery, just like every other year. Former Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema won the award last year, solidifying his status as one of the finest center-forwards in the world, but he is not among the frontrunners this year. It would be a record-breaking achievement for Lionel Messi to win the award for the eighth time in his career. The Argentine, who has dominated the Ballon d'Or for the past decade, is the center of attention.

The Ballon d'Or 2023 ceremony will start at 20:00 local time (19:00 UTC, 6:00 PM GMT, or 7:00 PM BST)

Where will the Ballon d'Or 2023 take place?

The announcement of the Ballon d'Or winner will take place at the Theatre du Chatelet in Paris on Monday, October 30.
