What’s new

Here’s what is new for the upcoming edition of Eventex Awards.

Eligibility

Anyone in the industry really can enter the competition. The top companies are already Eventex Awards regulars, but everyone has a chance of winning and that’s a proven fact.

Eventex Awards is a global competition with no geographical restrictions, the only requirement is that your entries are in English!

Any event, experience or campaign, or at least some part of it, that has taken place between 1 July 2019 to 28 February 2021 is eligible to enter.

The same period applies to the “Creativity & Innovation” and “Achievements & Results” criteria for all categories in the “Tech, Production & Venues” track.

Key Dates

Evaluation

We’ve been doing this for over 10 years now. Making sure all worthy entries get the recognition they deserve is always our top priority.

The Eventex Awards ratings are based on 3 key criteria:

The Grand Prix group includes several categories including: Best Live Event, Best Live Experience, Best Digital Event/Experience, Best Marketing Campaign, and Best Agency.
By entering in at least 1 category within a track, you also automatically enter the respective Grand Prix category.
The Grand Prix Best Agency category is decided by the number of accolades an agency is awarded for their work. Gold Award: 100 points, Silver Award: 50 points, Bronze Award: 30 points.

People’s Choice group 
Each Track has its own People’s Choice category where the winners are decided by public voting. The People’s Choice categories are: People’s Choice Live Event, People’s Choice Live Experience, People’s Choice Digital Event/Experience, People’s Choice Marketing Campaign, People’s Choice Event Technology, People’s Choice Production/Supplier, People’s Choice Venue.

By entering in at least 1 category within a track, you also automatically enter the respective People’s Choice category for free.

Judging

We invite experts and professionals with years of experience in events to form the judging panel – event magazine journalists, heads of associations, representatives of convention bureaus, top influencers and thought leaders from the industry.

Each entry is initially assessed to make sure it meets the eligibility criteria and see if all fields are filled in correctly. If so, the entry gets approved and continues into the evaluation phase. If an entry gets rejected, our team shall provide feedback on the reasons it was rejected, so edits and corrections can be made before re-submitting the entry.

All approved entries in a category are then evaluated on their own merit and based on the set criteria, instead of getting judged against each other. The final score of the entry is the average score of each jury member.

In order to receive an award, an entry has to meet a minimum final score of:
Gold Award – 75 points
Silver Award – 65 points
Bronze Award – 55 points

Our Research & Development team spent years perfecting this process, focusing on better structure and more accurate, fair and balanced entry evaluation.
