Take Part in the Decision: Audience Voting Has Started

The Central European Creative Awards shortlist, showcasing the region’s most outstanding creative projects, has been announced. The public can vote for the finalists, selected from 102 entries, on the official website until 30 April.

Voting for the Central European Creative Awards is now open, allowing the public, alongside industry professionals, to express their views on the finalist works. A total of 102 applications were submitted in response to the call announced at the beginning of the year, from Hungary and several other countries across the region.

The selection was the result of a multi-stage professional process; the entries were first evaluated by an Advisory Board composed of domestic and international experts, and the final decision was made by the Hungarian Creative Industry Council. Shortlists were created in seven of the nine categories—naturally, excluding the Lifetime Achievement Award and the Audience Choice Award categories—with three outstanding entries selected in each category. 

Altogether, 21 projects have been shortlisted, from which the audience can choose their preferred entries. While the professional jury considered innovation, marketability, and conceptual quality as defining aspects, the audience voting reflects individual preferences and impressions. 

We believe that creativity is not only for the profession, but it also enriches our everyday life. For this reason, we consider it essential that the audience’s voice is represented at the awards ceremony. The Audience Choice Award will be presented to the project receiving the highest number of votes. 

Voting is simple: explore the shortlisted projects HERE and cast your vote for the work that resonates with you the most. In addition to the award, professional recognition, and the unique trophy, the winner will be granted a financial prize of HUF 1,500,000 (gross).
