The APA Show
is changing
To mark a milestone year and better reflect the evolving work of APA members, the APA Show is changing.
For 2025, in addition to showcasing the best commercials of the year ‘APA Show Collection’, we are introducing TWO NEW CATEGORIES to demonstrate how APA members are meeting the needs of clients, ‘Effectiveness’ & ‘Branded Online Content’.
We will also be showing some of the best work from the last 25 years, drawing from the past APA Collections.
THE WINNING WORK FROM ALL CATEGORIES WILL BE PREMIERED AT THE APA SHOW - ON THE 10TH SEPTEMBER.
