The final deadline for entry in the 9th Ad Stars Awards closes on Wednesday June 15, 2016.
Ad Stars is the only global advertising festival to reward two US$10,000 cash prizes to its Grand Prix of the Year winners.
It’s also free to enter, although this year for the first time there is an entry fee attached to the Integrated category.
“There are a lot of advertising festivals globally, but Ad Stars is unique because it is free to enter,” noted Eui Ja Lee, Co-chairperson of the Ad Stars executive committee, “which makes it very democratic – every agency and production company of any size can afford to enter. This year, we’re hoping to receive 20,000 entries from 70 countries.”
Ad Stars is the biggest advertising festival in Asia and is open to everyone including advertising professionals, production companies, students and non-professionals.
Co-chairperson, Hwan Jin Choi, added, “Another thing that sets Ad Starsapart is our US$10,000 cash prizes for Grand Prix of the Year. At AD STARS, we truly believe creativity can build brands, and change lives. By offering two cash prizes, we hope to support the industry to continually raise the benchmark for ideas and innovation.”
Entries may be submitted online at any time of the year, but only those entries received prior to June 15 will be in the running to win Grand Prix, Gold, Silver or Bronze medals at the Ad Stars awards on August 27 2016.
The Ad Stars awards will conclude the 9th Ad Stars festival, a three-day festival of ideas and creativity that will run from August 25 – 27 2016 in Busan, South Korea.
