New for 2024
One notable change for the ADC 103rd Annual Awards is Best of Discipline honors will be awarded to brand-based work only. Entries for non-profit clients are no longer eligible.
This year will also mark the show’s first Best of Non-Profit award, presented for the top-scoring work from across all disciplines done for a non-profit client as voted by the entire jury. Best of Non-Profit will receive the same points as a Best of Discipline winner.
Other highlights for the ADC 103rd Annual Awards include:
- Rankings Points – All awards will receive rankings points, multiple awards for the same work within a discipline will not be de-duped.
- Storytelling Categories – Advertising discipline expanded with new categories for Storytelling in Humor and Drama genres.
- Continued partnership with creative community Working Not Working on event and content collaborations, as well as the special Freelancer of the Year award.
- ADC Members’ Choice Award, where freelance members of both The One Club and Working Not Working are invited to cast votes for their favorite entry amongst the year’s top-scoring works in all ADC Design disciplines.
A special tiered pricing structure makes it easier for smaller agencies, studios and freelancers to participate. Larger agencies and brands pay the standard entry fee; smaller shops get a discount on entries (amount varies by discipline), and freelance creatives and one-person shops are eligible for an even greater reduction in their entry fee.
The One Club is a non-profit organization that puts revenue generated from awards entries into programs that serve the industry under the club’s four pillars: Education, Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, Gender Equality and Creative Development.
