ADC Awards

ADC Annual Awards is the oldest continuously running industry award show in the world, with an incredible legacy of over 100 years. These awards celebrate the very best in advertising, digital media, graphic and publication design, packaging and product design, motion, experiential and spatial design, photography, illustration and fashion design – all with a focus on artistry and craftsmanship.

Agency of the Year is awarded to the Agency that garners the most points overall for winning entries (Cubes, Merits, Special Awards), allocated per the points chart.

Points are only awarded to agencies credited under the Primary Agency listing. If several agencies are listed, the points are DIVIDED among them.


MULTIPLE AWARDS WITHIN DISCIPLINES
When the same piece of work wins multiple awards within a single Discipline or in multiple Disciplines, the points for all award wins are counted towards the rankings.


The rankings were determined based on the point values listed on this chart:
