There are 24 categories.

These highly-regarded accolades are exclusively awarded to creators of exemplary content, whether you’re a professional content creator, or if you’re just a regular person who has created something so great that it’s gone viral.  For this year, you need to be South African and live in South Africa for most of the year.  We’ll expand into Africa in a couple of years, watch this space…

Please refer to the T&Cs for additional details

Each category will be judged by the best in the business, from content creators, to marketers, to brand managers, to creative directors. Some of the judges or MCs might have entered categories themselves, but they will not be able to vote for work submitted in that particular category.Please refer to the list of judges here.

•  All nominees will be selected by a panel of judges.
