Despite the rise of digital advertising, out-of-home remains a prestigious and exciting field thanks to its creatives and strategic thinkers. The Drum Awards for Out of Home reward the most effective and innovative campaigns, that made a big impact in what has been a challenging year. This year’s awards also feature three categories to highlight successful work in the time of Covid-19.

Talon Outdoor for BBC

Talon Outdoor, Havas and Global Street Art Agency are among this year's nominees.

The Drum is proud to present these awards in partnership with Alight Media. A leading challenger in UK out-of-home media, they help advertisers achieve national reach through incremental cover, the proven strength of classic formats and new, high quality digital infrastructure.

This year's judging panel was an international mix of senior agency figures from Publicis Media, BBC Creative, Alight Media, Mother, ClearChannel, Mindshare and more, as well as brands like Müller and BT.

In light of the ongoing global situation, The Drum Awards have moved online. A virtual ceremony will take place on Wednesday 25 November, at 4pm GMT. It will be free to attend and you can register here.
