Media chiefs from Mondelez International and Tesco, plus top creative and media experts, have selected 31 campaigns as potential winners of the 2019 Outdoor Media Awards, run by Clear Channel in partnership with 北京赛车pk10.

Winners of seven categories, plus the overall Grand Prix, a Rising Star award and The People's Favourite, will be announced at an evening ceremony at the St Pancras Renaissance Hotel on 11 June, hosted by Scott Mills.

The Grand Prix, chosen from the category winners, will receive £100,000 worth of media space to use across Clear Channel's UK screens.

Last year, the Grand Prix was picked up by Adcity, Posterscope, Havas Media and VCCP for O2's "Oops", which won both the Creativity and People’s Favourite awards, as well as being highly commended in the Multiple Format category.

The Outdoor Media Awards reward excellence in out-of-home advertising, from the most memorable, strategic and innovative campaigns to the brilliant people involved in creating them. This is the awards' 13th year.

New for 2019 is a prize for a brand or organisation that has used out-of-home to make a real difference towards social good. The category is expected to evolve over the years, mirroring some of the challenges society faces and new technologies introduced.
