PARIS, Today: The Epica Awards, the only global creative prize judged by the press, has announced a later closing date of Thursday 15 October 15. The delay is due to the turbulence caused by Covid-19 – and the need to attract the maximum amount of great creative work to show the jury.
The jury (which includes M+AD) will vote online. The shortlist will be announced on Sunday 1 December, with the winners announced (also online) on Thursday 17 – a month later than on previous years.
As usual, the creative work will be judged not only by editors and senior reporters from the leading trade titles covering advertising, marketing and design, but specialist writers in fields such as fashion, finance and food.
“The Epica Awards covers advertising, design, media, PR and digital.”
Epica Awards editorial director Mark Tungate, who moderates the jury, said: “The crisis has turned everything upside down, but we’re delighted that the Epica Awards ceremony will go ahead, even if the format will be virtual.
“We’ll strive to ensure that the winning work is given the best showcase possible. One thing is certain: our jury of journalists are always keen to cover the event, so the PR opportunity for entrants remains intact.”
The Epica Awards cover advertising, design, media, PR and digital.
