Review the below eligibility dates, rules, and restrictions for the 2023 Pendoring Awards to ensure that your work meets our requirements for entry.
All work must be published or aired between the dates listed below. "Published" means the advertisement or work appeared in a form of mass media exposed to a substantial audience.
1. Entries must be commercially published, launched or aired for the first time between 2 October 2022 and 1 September 2023.
2. In the case of campaigns that straddle the eligibility period, e.g. if two pieces of a campaign were published prior to 2 October 2022 and three pieces after that, then the full campaign (all five pieces) is eligible for entry this year. If you have previously entered two of the pieces into last year’s awards, you can enter all three pieces into the integrated campaign this year.
3. Student work created from 2 October 2022 and up to 1 September 2023 may be entered.
4. Absolutely no work that has not yet been published, launched or aired will be accepted - and the onus is on the agency to ensure that all work entered meets these rules.
