Awards restructured
Restructured for 2024, these awards build on the legacy of Warc’s previous shows to honour the best marketing campaigns from across the globe that deliver strategic brilliance and effective impact to drive commercial success.
Commenting on this first stage of the judging process, John Bizzell, awards lead, Warc, says, “Guided by the universal frameworks of the Creative Effectiveness and B2B Effectiveness Ladders, our regional juries have brought their expertise to the table and judged diligently and with rigour to select the shortlists."
Bizzell adds, “Winning a Warc award isn’t easy, so all shortlisted entrants should be hugely proud of their work getting to this stage.”
The winners of the Bronze, Silver and Gold awards across all five regions will be revealed on 22 May.
All Gold winners will automatically progress to compete at a Global level where a super-jury made up of all the regional jury chairs will award the coveted Warc Grands Prix, the ultimate recognition for marketing success.
The Grands Prix will be revealed on 13 June via the Effectiveness Show part one. The Effectiveness Show part two will include interviews and insights from the Grand Prix winners.
The Warc Awards 2025 will open for entries on 3 September. The first deadline will be 16 October, the second on 13 November and the third and final deadline will be 11 December.
