About ADC 105th Annual Awards
Entries can be submitted now, with fees increasing after each deadline period. Regular deadline is Friday, 23 January, with extended deadline of Friday, 6 February, and final deadline Friday, 20 February, says the NPO.
The 2026 awards include the presentation of the Paul Manship Medal, now reimagined as an enterable category recognising a single designer who best acts as a catalyst for change, demonstrates foresight and innovation, embodies a lasting legacy and made the most significant contribution in the past 12 months to two years, adds the NPO.
A special tiered pricing structure makes it easier for smaller agencies, studios and freelancers to participate. Larger agencies and brands pay the standard entry fee; smaller shops get a discount on entries (amount varies by discipline), while freelancers and one-person shops are eligible for an even greater reduction in their entry fee, says the NPO.
The 2025 global ADC 105th Annual Awards call for entries campaign was created by Dentsu Inc. Tokyo, concludes the NPO.
