New categories for DStv Content Creator Awards 2024

6 May 2024

The DStv Content Creator Awards 2024 have open entries across all categories, welcoming talented individuals to showcase their innovative work.

This year is about storytelling in all its forms. It's about the narrative, the stories, and, most importantly, the unique points of view of each content creator. It's about celebrating the creator's own perspective - the unfiltered, original POV of content creation that brings stories to life.

The awards will focus more on celebrating the content creators themselves rather than individual pieces of content. New categories have been introduced to echo the evolving nature of content and its creators. This is the year the DStv Content Creator Awards goes continental with the first-event Pan-African Creator Award. This category is for the African continent, celebrating talent in countries outside of South Africa.
