Campaign is a proud supporter of all aspects of the advertising industry, from the marketing visionaries and leaders at brands across the country, to the agencies they hire, the creative and strategic minds they employ, and the brilliant work they produce.
Over the years, Campaign has produced a number of highly-regarded awards programs to celebrate top performers across the industry each year.
After the successful Canadian launch of the Agency of the Year Awards in 2025 - with interest that far exceeded our expectations - we’re delighted to say we’ve taken another step to further celebrate Canadian advertising.
Last year’s AOTY was mostly about agency and personal honors with some awards for the work. In 2026, we’re expanding our programs to allow for a brighter spotlight on the creative and media work itself, by introducing Campaign BIGs Canada and Campaign Media awards.
The Campaign Canada awards now celebrate the application of creative problem-solving to business challenges by all agencies - from nimble independents to members of the global holding companies- across disciplines including creative, media and PR.
These awards honour not only the best in Canadian-led insight, innovation, strategy, and creativity, but the exceptional agency leaders and teams responsible. It is a celebration of creativity, along with the exceptional leadership, innovation, talent development and meaningful contributions to the industry.
The awards are open to all Canadian agencies.
