ADDYs

The local ADDY program is the first step in the American Advertising Federation (AAF) annual ADDY competition in which 60,000 advertising entries are submitted in hopes of winning a coveted ADDY. On the local level, more than 120 professional and student entries from Tri-State AMP members are judged each year and nearly 40 ADDY Awards are presented at the annual awards banquet.

The 2013 ADDY Awards will be held Friday, March 1 at The Plaza by Ray’s in Cape Girardeau. Entries are due by 4 pm on January 11, 2013.

Winners of the ADDY Awards are eligible to compete in the second level of the three-tiered ADDY Awards Competition, the District 9 ADDY Awards conducted in March. The District 9 winners are then eligible for the ultimate competition, the national ADDY, presented in June every year by the American Advertising Federation. As a three-tiered national competition with 60,000 entrants overall, the national ADDY Awards are the advertising industry’s largest and most representative competition, recognizing creative excellence and the very best advertising worldwide.
