There are nine categories in this year’s awards, including the new Rising Star Award. The new addition for this year recognises those who have joined out-of-home advertising within the last five years and are making waves within the industry.
The Grand Prix winner will receive £100,000 worth of media space to use across Clear Channel UK screens. The People’s Favourite Award is the only category that will not be judged by the panel, but by over 1,000 members of the UK public.
The awards are free to and campaigns may be entered into multiple categories.
