Covid extension kicks in

AUCKLAND, Today: The Comms Council has announced an extension to the dates of the 2020 NZ Effie Awards, due to the current Covid-19 restrictions.

Entries will now close in just over one week – on Wednesday 26 August.

The actual show – scheduled for Eden Park on Thursday 29 October – has yet to be confirmed. A virtual awards show now looks distinctly likely.
