FMBE Awards 2022 announces shortlist and awards venue

FMBE Awards 2022 has been through a typically exacting process to create this year’s shortlist of finalists. The awards event is now open for table and seat bookings on a first come first served basis, with first booked tables taking priority positions. We will be celebrating this industry at The Pavilion, Ascot Racecourse, 17th November 2022.

As per recent years, judges assessed every category for strength in depth and were asked to produce a shortlist of 1-7 finalists per category.

In categories where only 1 or 2 finalists are listed, gold or silver award standards are not guaranteed and are awarded at the judge’s discretion.

This year saw a major post-Covid return to strength in depth in key brand experience categories including Sponsorship Activation and Immersive Event. Judges also noted exceptional quality going very deep in many categories including Field Data, Brand Ambassador, Product Launch and Operational Success.

As usual some high quality and high-profile campaigns have not made the shortlist and entrants are encouraged to request feedback, which is typically provided after the awards ceremony.

Awards director, Frank Wainwright comments: “Congratulations to all who are shortlisted and commiserations to those who have not made the cut this year. We are exceptionally proud of the standards that have been set by our finalists, and we have been delighted to see the FMBE industry build on its versatility. We have a showcase to be inspired by, that shows how FMBE techniques have solved creative and logistical challenges for so many impressive brands and events, delivering returns on investment and engagement, time after time.”
