Dear creatives of the world,

You work hard. Having the talent to create something that gets into the heads of an audience and changes their behaviour is a high value skill.

A skill that powers the entertainment industry worldwide.

The Global Entertainment Awards gives you, the creative, a voice. Exposure of your work, story and potential. And brings your name or brand to the attention of esteemed judges and industry leaders worldwide.

We know you want to win. But a lot can be learned from the experience of entering and having your work considered by our judges.

A nomination shows your work stands out from that of your peers and is a big deal.

There’re opportunities to win regional and global awards. And have the marketplace hear your voice, see your name and know that you, your team or your creative agency can seriously bring the goods.

“It’s important to look beyond your own markets to see how creativity is promoting entertainment in other parts of the world. It’s a fast way to feel inspired by new techniques, and bring fresh influences and new thinking home to your team.”

Got some brilliant work promoting a piece of entertainment that you want to share with the world? And feel ‘award winning creative…’ next to your name has a good ring to it?

To enter, you need to submit your creative work in the relevant categories and tell us a bit about it. 

Early entry deadline is January 31, 2024.
