New York Festivals Advertising Awards

New York Festivals Advertising Awards is an international competition recognising creative advertising and brand communications across disciplines including film, design, audio, digital, outdoor, public relations and emerging technology. It is organised by New York Festivals, part of International Awards Group, LLC, and welcomes work from agencies, brands, production companies and other creative organisations around the world. Entries are assessed by international juries for their creative merit against the relevant category definitions, rather than against the number of competing entries. Judging progresses through multiple rounds, with recognition including Finalist, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Grand Award and Best of Show. The programme also recognises industry achievements and includes categories for student work.

Planning guidance

Turn dates into a submission workflow

Assign an internal owner to every deadline at least six weeks before the official date. For each candidate entry, track category fit, evidence readiness, asset completeness, client approval status, and budget approval. If a milestone carries a fee, use it as a forcing function for the slate review rather than waiting for the final submission date.
