Goafest Creative Abbys 2016 sees 25% hike in entries received

The Goafest Creative Abbys 2016 has witnessed exponential growth in entries this year. Held over a three-day celebratory event in Goa, the Creative Abbys has witnessed a 25 per cent increase in entries over last year, reiterating the increasing popularity and repute of the awards where the entire  fraternity comes together to celebrate success.

The Abbys has witnessed several firsts this year, like the introduction of new categories such as Special Abby (Gender Sensitive) and Young Abby. TV films that are based on gender sensitivity can be entered in the Special Abby. Young Abby is the response to a long felt need of the industry to reward young creative below the age of 30 who respond to a brief. Two winning Young Creatives will be flown to Cannes as part of Goafest Abbys’ commitment to the young.

Adding further depth to the awards and broad-basing the participation opportunity is the further addition of new sub-categories in the Design vertical as well.

Presented by The Advertising Club and Advertising Agencies Association of India (AAAI), the Goafest Abbys 2016 will once again see the entire advertising and marketing community join the celebrations in Goa from April 7 to 9 at The Grand Hyatt, Bambolim, North Goa.
