There are now just two weeks to go to enter the 2026 Prolific North Marketing Awards, with the standard entry deadline fast approaching.
Entries must be submitted by midnight on 17 September.
And if you’ve been thinking “we’ll get round to entering” – now is the time.
Your best work deserves to be recognised
The Prolific North Marketing Awards celebrate the people, teams, agencies and campaigns making an impact across the North’s marketing industry.
From standout creative and digital campaigns to impressive in-house teams, rising talent and specialist sector work, there are categories designed to recognise the breadth of marketing happening across the region.
The 2026 awards also introduced a number of new categories, including Best Charity Campaign, Best Public Sector & Not-for-Profit Campaign, Best Health or Life Sciences Campaign, New Agency to Watch and Marketing Freelancer of the Year.
And there are still free categories to enter
These include:
- Best In-House Marketing Team
- Prolific Marketer of the Year
- Prolific Marketing Rising Star of the Year
- Marketing Freelancer of the Year
So whether you’re putting forward a campaign, your agency, your team or an individual colleague, there could be a category that fits.
Put your work in front of leading marketing figures
Entries will be assessed by an expert judging panel featuring senior marketing leaders from some of the UK’s best-known organisations, including Formula 1, HECK! Food, Chester Zoo, Leeds Building Society and STADA UK.
It’s an opportunity not just to compete for an award, but to put your work in front of experienced industry figures and benchmark your achievements against some of the best marketing work being produced across the North.
Don’t leave it until the last minute
There’s still time to enter, but with just two weeks remaining, now is the point to get your submission moving.
You don’t have to complete everything in one sitting. You can start your entry, save your progress and return to it before submitting – so even if you’ve only got the beginnings of an idea, there’s still time to get it over the line.
The standard entry deadline is midnight on 17 September.
There will be an extended deadline until 25 September, but increased entry fees will apply, so if you want to enter at the standard rate, make sure your submission is in by 17 September.
