2026 D&AD Awards Ceremony

Join us on Thursday 24 September 2026 at Christ Church Shoreditch, London, for the D&AD Awards Ceremony.

An evening dedicated to the highest standard of creative excellence, the Ceremony will reveal and celebrate the 2026 Black Pencil winners, alongside the Companies of the Year, top-ranking individuals, and the announcement of the 2027 D&AD President. Although already announced, the night will also honour the Yellow Pencils in style.

These are the people, teams and ideas keeping creativity alive: setting the standard, pushing the work forward, and proving why creative excellence still matters.Bringing together the global creative community, this is a moment to honour the work that has defined the 2026 Awards, and to celebrate those shaping what comes next.
