Marketing Awards Shortlists: Radio and Public Service

Are you keeping up on who's in the running?

We’re counting down to the 91st annual Marketing Awards on May 30! Over the coming days, Marketing will reveal the shortlists across the 12 competition categories included in this year’s event. Below are the ads in the running (as either single executions or campaign components) in both the Radio and Public Service competitions.

All entries were reviewed and scored by an expanded jury of creatives from across the country. The entire jury (in-person and online) was divided into three groups and each group saw one-third of the work. From these scores, jury co-chairs Dean Lee and Joseph Bonnici identified the top scores to determine the shortlist.

Check back at MarketingMag.ca for more shortlists, and join us at Toronto’s prestigious Carlu to celebrate the winners on May 30. Tickets are available.
