Local Competition. National Recognition.
Submit your work for the 2023 ADDYs here.
The American Advertising Awards is the advertising industry’s largest and most representative competition, attracting over 40,000 entries nationwide. The mission of the American Advertising Awards competition is to recognize and reward the creative spirit of excellence in the art of advertising. It all begins with your local club competition, hosted by AAF Triangle! Winners from the Triangle advance to the District 3 Competition (NC, SC, VA) and ultimately to the Nationals!
The AAF Triangle Competition extends as far east as Wilmington and as far west as Greensboro. This local competition has seen winners advance to win top honors at District level, as well as National level. With such great creativity in Central and Eastern North Carolina, it’s easy to see why.
Advertising’s Night On The Town
AAF Triangle presents awards to exceptional advertising students, researchers, and professionals. These awards honor influential, revolutionary, and transformative leaders and their work. They are supported by AAF Triangle through their contributions that recognize and promote excellence in advertising.
