The Big Bang Awards return this year to celebrate excellence in creative, media, digital, and marketing work across India and is organised by The Advertising Club Bangalore. It is recognised as one of the largest showcases of talent outside Mumbai, the Awards continue to attract participation from agencies, brands, and creators nationwide.
Last year’s edition saw over 600 entries from 58 agencies representing 132 clients across 17 cities, reinforcing its position as a benchmark for creative excellence.
The 2025 edition aims to be bigger, sharper, and more future-facing — with a focus on AI-powered creativity, data-led storytelling, immersive design, and media innovation. The Awards Night is scheduled for early December in Bengaluru, following a nationwide call for entries in September.
The organisers have opened up media partnership opportunities for the upcoming edition. As a Media Partner, publications can gain exposure to a high-value audience of marketing, media, and creative professionals, while aligning with one of the region’s most established awards platforms.
Partners will benefit from visibility across entry promotions, jury announcements, and the Awards Night, along with exclusive editorial and branding opportunities.
From Ad Club Bangalore, media partners will receive logo presence across all official communications — including print, digital, and social platforms — and on the event website and creatives. Mentions in press releases, acknowledgements during the Awards Night, and invitations for senior editorial teams are also part of the deliverables.
Additional opportunities include coverage partnerships such as interviews, jury profiles, and post-event highlights, along with mentions on the Ad Club’s WhatsApp channels.
From Media Partners, publications are expected to provide banner placements on their websites during the entry period, newsletter ads, emailers announcing key milestones, and promotional social media posts. Promotion via WhatsApp or Telegram groups is also encouraged.
The Advertising Club Bangalore has stated that partnerships can be customised based on the media platform’s strengths — whether through expanded editorial coverage, exclusive interviews, or enhanced event amplification.
