About the ADDY Awards
The Annual ADDY Awards will recognize the best creative and excellence in advertising in the Hampton Roads region. The ADDY Awards are the first level in a three-tiered competition sponsored by the American Advertising Federation (AAF). Through the ADDY Awards, the AAF and local ad clubs fulfill their commitment to cultivate the highest standards of advertising. With 60,000 entries nationwide, the ADDY Awards is the nation's largest advertising competition. We are hoping for more than 600 entries for this year’s ADDYs. The ADDY Awards show will be held Saturday, February 23, 7 pm at the Cavalier Hotel on Virginia Beach Oceanfront. Attendance at the event is expected to exceed 500 people.
To be eligible for consideration of an ADDY®, all work must have been published or aired between January 1, 2007 and December 31, 2007. A distinguished panel of advertising creative executives will gather in A Secret Undisclosed Location to select the winners from an anticipated 400 entries.
