Antigua Barbuda Global Music & Media Awards (ABGMA) is an annual event in Antigua and Barbuda established by So Arise Music International in 2014, to celebrate and award talent in music and media. The festival promotes artistic excellence, community contributions, and cultural enrichment in Antigua and Barbuda and the region by extension.

Initially focused on gospel music, the ABGMA was founded on 2014 by Apostle Stanshaw Cornelius. It has since expanded to include multiple awards, such as the Legacy Ball & Media Awards and the Island Groove Awards, recognizing achievements in over 80 categories.
