The Emma Gala (Finnish: Emma-gaala) is a Finnish music gala arranged yearly by Musiikkituottajat (ÄKT), presenting the Emma Awards[1] to the most distinguished artists and music professionals of the year.
Until 1991, the winners were selected by representatives of ÄKT.
From 1992 onward they have only selected the candidates, from which a board of music critics has selected the winners.
The selection criteria include interesting musical merit, musical and commercial success in the recording industry, and the artists' popularity measured in different ways.
