Covid-19, Trump, climate change, Australian Bushfires: The Chip Shop Awards 2020 finalists

Each year without fail, the awards are inundated with a mixture of risky, extreme and downright ingenious entries from the creative community. A rebel with a cause, the Chip Shops offer a platform for creatives with no rules and no limits, meaning the possibilities are endless.

And today, we can reveal which creatives have been shortlisted for this year's awards after they tackled topics ranging from the Covid-19 crisis to Donald Trump, global warming, British politics, royalty and the Australian bushfires.

“It was a joy to judge the Chip Shop Awards – the most fun I’ve had on Zoom so far,” said chair of the 2020 jury, Ben Golik, chief creative officer, M&C Saatchi.

“A great gang of judges and some truly brilliant work to sift through. Naturally, lots of people riffing on sweaty Royals, tributes to Aussie bushfires and no escaping the spectre of Covid. But also, some quieter gems doing their own smart thing, which was often far more interesting. Plenty of worthy winners, and as always, a bunch of work that should have run for real.”

With the current Covid-19 situation, this means that The Drum won’t be hosting its usual party in one of London’s quirky clubs, so we’re sharing the exciting news in a variety of ways via our digital channels with all our nominees and winners.

For updates on our winners plans, keep an eye on the awards website.
