The Immortal Awards concluded this year’s European judging days with the first regional session of the year. Seven projects were awarded European Finalist status and have qualified for the final, global round of judging, among them also The Night is Young campaign for Heineken by Publicis Italy that was entered into the Immortal Awards by Golden Drum Festival.

Jurors from across the region were looking at the Finalists from the Irish, UK and German jury days, alongside the highest scoring work from the rest of the region and this year’s Grand Prix winners at Golden Drum.

It was the first time ever that the European jury sat in-person, following two years of online judging. The jurors were tasked with deciding which projects, if any, were to qualify for the final, global round of judging as European Finalists.

Following a day of detailed and intense debate, seven projects were deemed strong enough to qualify for the next round, representing European advertising on the global stage.

The Immortal Awards 2022 European Finalists are:

  • Bodyform/Libresse - #periodsomnia (submitted by AMV BBDO, Somesuch, Time Based Arts and 750mph)

The seven projects will join the Finalists from the remaining regional jury sessions - North America, LATAM, MEA and APAC - at the global round of judging on Thursday 1st December, where jurors will decide which projects will receive either Commendation status or an Immortal Award.
