The moment the industry has been waiting for has arrived. For the 16th time, we get to do our favorite thing: shine a spotlight on the most creative, most ambitious, most boundary-pushing work in events and experience marketing — from every corner of the globe.

‍

‍

This year, the world showed up in record numbers. 1405 entries. 58 countries. 6 continents. (Antarctica, we remain hopeful.)

Every entry represented a team that poured vision, craft, and conviction into their work. Today, we celebrate the ones who rose to the top.

Hall of Fame 

Four new countries joined the Eventex Awards family of winners this edition: Uzbekistan, Peru, Monaco, and Georgia. The global reach of this competition has never been wider — and the creative ambition behind it has never been stronger. 

More tiers, more recognition 

In addition to announcing Platinum, Gold, Silver, and Bronze awards, this year we are also elevating recognition with Grand Prix winners, who have demonstrated game-changing creativity. This year, only 5 entries managed to secure this recognition. 

More tiers 

This edition, we are also recognizing more entries that stood out in the awards. 

• Grand Prix finalists — an honor reserved for the entries in Grand Prix categories that did not win Grand Prix, but scored 70 points or higher. 
• Honorable mentions — entries in the rest of the categories that really stood out (securing 69 points and above) but did not make the final winners' list.
