With a total of 127 candidates entered into this year's awards, Wayne Bishop, the AMASA Chairmen, said the standard and quality of entries were some of the best the awards and judging committee has ever seen, making all selections and identifying the overall Roger Garlick Grand Prix incredibly challenging but inspiring at the same time.
The renowned Roger Garlick Grand Prix Award went to Halo advertising for their outstanding work on their Jacaranda FM, #MoreMusicYouLove campaign. "This year's winner checked all three of the most important boxes - innovation, strategy and execution; we’re so incredibly impressed with their imaginative and forward-thinking strategy," says Wayne Bishop, head of the AMASA Awards portfolio.
Congratulations to all the finalists and winners and thank you once again to all those who supported the awards this year. We can’t wait to see how you’ll blow us away next year!
