American Advertising Awards
Competition
ENTER NOW THROUGH JANUARY 30, 2026
The American Advertising Awards
Conducted annually by the AAF, the local Ad Club phase is the first of a three-tier, national competition. Concurrently, all across the country, local entrants vie to receive an ADDY® Award—recognition as the very best in their markets. At the second tier, local ADDY® winners compete against winners from other local clubs in one of 15 district competitions. District ADDY® winners are then forwarded to the third tier, the national stage of the American Advertising Awards. Entry in the AAF-Greater Evansville competition is the first step toward winning a national ADDY®.
The Student Competition
The American Advertising Awards Competition: Student Division, is a unique national awards program designed specially for college students. Work entered at the local level can advance to the regional and national judging, just like the work entered by professionals across the country.
Join us on Friday, February 17th for the 2022-2023 American Advertising Awards Ceremony.
Presented by the American Advertising Federation of Greater Evansville (AAF-GE), the ADDY Awards are given to the work that represents the true spirit of creative excellence by recognizing all forms of advertising within all types of media, in all shapes and sizes, and entrants of all levels.
The event will showcase both AAF-GE members’ and non-members’ entries and present the coveted ADDY awards to the most deserving talent in the Tri-State area. Both AAF-GE members and non-members were invited to compete for the chance to win at the local level and further advance to the district level and possibly to the national competition in May presented by the American Advertising Federation.
