Awards
A national platform celebrating the fearless professionals who bring action to life — showcasing a world-class South African stunt industry that has powered global productions for decades, yet rarely receives the recognition it deserves.
Welcome to South Africa’s Stunt Awards!
Honouring the fearless. Celebrating the craft.
The Saffa Stunt Awards is an annual event dedicated to recognising the exceptional work of our local stunt performers and action crew — the artists and athletes behind the action.
From explosive car chases to breathtaking fight scenes, our stunt community brings South African and international productions to life — often risking it all to do so.
You’ve already seen their work in global hits like One Piece, Warrior, Tomb Raider, Mad Max: Fury Road, and Avengers: Age of Ultron. But that’s just the beginning.
This award ceremony is more than a celebration — it’s a platform to showcase world-class talent, attract investment, and build a stronger future for the South African film industry.
Shining a spotlight on the unsung heroes of action storytelling.
Giving credit where it’s long overdue.
