The finest events have a life well beyond their closing moments and they give substance and memorability to a brand’s story. Achieving that takes an extraordinary understanding of the audience and an out-of-the-box idea executed with painstaking attention to detail.
Entries are now open for Campaign Asia-Pacific Event Marketing Awards 2027, recognising the people and businesses behind the region’s most accomplished events and experiences.
The awards welcome work from brands, agencies, venues, tourism boards and event suppliers across the APAC region. A panel of experienced marketing professionals will assess the thinking behind each entry and how well it was delivered, from the initial strategy through to execution.
To keep pace with the region’s evolving events landscape, the 2027 awards introduce two new categories:
Best Milestone Brand Experience recognises events built around a brand or company anniversary. The winning entry must show how the team made the event meaningful for its purpose.
Best AI-Powered Event Experience examines how artificial intelligence contributes to the experience itself. That could mean bespoke interactions, better content delivery, smoother operations or new ways for audiences to participate. Judges will look for a clear role for AI and evidence of what it added to the event.
In both, entrants should explain why they took their approach, how it shaped the experience and what results it achieved. If your team has delivered work that deserves a bigger stage, put it forward, and make sure the judgement, collaboration and craft behind it get their due credit. The official entry kit has the full category descriptions, eligibility requirements and key dates.
We’d love to see your work. The early bird deadline is Monday 23 November, so there’s no better moment to start pulling your entry together.
Good luck!
