Australian Magazine Awards: new digital-only brand category introduced

By AdNews | 29 August 2018
 

The Australian Magazine Awards, presented by AdNews and Nielsen, have this year introduced a digital-only magazine brand category to cater for online only magazine brands (websites), and magazine brands that are served up as digital propositions through e-readers.

It is hoped that this new category will broaden the scope of awards to embrace all of those working across the publishing sector.

With only one month left to go for entries, organisers are calling on all publishers and magazine brand owners to get involved.

You can find the ENTRY KIT here.

Our reinvigorated Awards program will see the event switch from a formal breakfast to an evening awards ceremony and party on 22 November at Ovolo, Woolloomooloo.

The event will be MC'd by Melbourne Comedy Festival winner Ivan Aristeguieta.

In keeping with a desire to ensure the awards are fast-paced and fresh, AMA organisers have shed a few categories and pared down the schedule, leaving more time for celebration.

AMA organisers would like to thank presenting partner for 2018 - Nielsen, our founding partner Magazine Networks, and our continuing supporting sponsors Bluestar Web and Gordon and Gotch. We thank you for your support of our much-loved program. We would also like to thank friend of the AMAs - Rachel's List

Entries are open until 28 Friday September. The full list of categories is below.

Our esteemed panel of 20 judges will be unveiled soon.

The event will take place on November 22 at Ovolo, Woolloomooloo. Tickets to the event can be purchased here.

Last year’s winners, which included Taste.com.au, Elle, Coles magazine and Men’s Health, are listed here.
