Call for FREE Entries to Campaign Brief NZ Agency of the Year + HOT LIST 2026 – deadline Fri 28 Nov
It’s soon time to pick the 2026 Campaign Brief New Zealand Agency of the Year, and the 2026 CB Hot List. And as always, it’s FREE TO ENTER
As far as most agency creative directors (and increasingly, more CEOs and CMOs) on both sides of the Tasman are concerned, CB Agency of the Year is the most coveted of all trade mag titles to win – and where an agency is placed on our annual chart (Last year’s NZ chart is pictured above) is critical to many agency’s new business performance in the coming year (that’s the bit of most interest to CEOs and CMOs!).
You’ll be pleased to know it’s FREE TO ENTER.
Provide all your best work on a USB stick (or email via We Transfer or similar). Please list in a separate doc. number of staff, highlights of the year, including all awards won in 2025, new people, plus accounts won and lost.
Please only include work that has or will run between January 1 and December 31, 2025.
Even if you feel it’s not your year, please send us your best as it is vital to work out where your agency fits on the 2026 CB Hot Chart, and if your agency makes the 2026 CB Hot List.
Make sure your package arrives at CB or emailed by Friday 28 November, 2025.
