American Advertising Awards

The AAF’s annual American Advertising Awards (formerly known as the ADDYs) program honors excellence in advertising and cultivates the highest creative standards.

It is the only creative awards program administered by the advertising industry for the industry. Each year, AAF members across the country enter more than 40,000 samples of their best work. This makes the American Advertising Awards the world’s largest advertising competition.

AAF-ND Gold winners proceed to the 8th District competition. District gold winners go on to the national finals.

Entering the American Advertising Awards supports the entire advertising industry because the AAF and its local and district affiliates use the proceeds to enhance advertising through programs such as public service, professional development, internships, advocacy groups, advertising education, and consumer awareness.
