About the American Advertising Awards

The American Advertising Awards is the advertising industry’s largest and most representative competition, attracting over 40,000 entries every year in local ad club competitions.

Conducted annually by the American Advertising Federation (AAF), the local phase is the first of a three-tier, national competition. All across the country, local entrants vie to win ADDY Awards – recognition as the very best in their markets. At the second tier, local ADDY winners compete against winners from other local clubs in one of 15 district competitions. District ADDY winners are then forwarded to the third tier, the national stage of the American Advertising Awards. Entry in the local AAF competition (with us!) is the first step toward winning a national ADDY.

Whether you’re an advertiser, a designer, or some other creative creature — old guard or new — get in and buckle up, baby. We’re getting ready to throw one helluva REUNION!

How to Enter

The Lexington Ad Club American Advertising Awards entry portal is officially open and accepting submissions until January 13, 2023 at 11:59 PM.

Entries will be judged digitally for the final time this year. Upload any files that you think will help judges understand your work. It may help to think of submissions as portfolio pieces: show all sides of work, submit photos of the finished piece (not flat art files), and so on.
