Gold takes many forms - jewellery, ingots, coins...but among the gold that the advertising community prizes the most, you will find the one with the Pepper mark on it. It's not easy to get to this gold. Your work has to make it past the exacting standards set by our eminent jury. The glory of winning metal at one of South India's prestigious advertising festivals makes all this worthwhile. The time to start preparing your entries is now. This year marks a significant milestone with a powerful new partnership with Manifest, a leading national news platform for marketing and advertising news.
Jury panel list will be updated soon
Founded in 2007, with the sole aim of conducting a creative award show at par with other major advertising awards in the country, it has not only expanded in scale, but also in reputation. It's arguably the ideal platform for agencies, media, production houses etc to gather, share ideas and get inspired. And undoubtedly the best place to relax, rejoice , meet and interact with new friends.
One of the critical factors contributing to our growth and sustainability has been the quality and credentials of our panel of judges. They are nationally and globally acknowledged creative persons from the advertising industry who have judged many such international and national creative awards including Cannes, Adfest, One Show, Clio, Goa fest etc.
Sponsors / Community partners list will be updated soon
