Crunch Wrap Up

Crunch made its return for 2026 on Thursday May 21, with AADC members, guests and sponsors meeting at the Historian Hotel for an afternoon of great food, great company and great conversation.

The event welcomed people from different corners of the industry, from agencies and studios to in-house teams, media, marketing and independent creatives. For some, it was a chance to catch up with peers, for others it was an opportunity to meet new people, put names to faces and get more involved with the AADC community.

This Crunch also marked another step in AADC’s ongoing commitment to building a more connected, collaborative and supportive local industry. With a calendar of events continuing throughout the year, the Club is focused on creating more opportunities for people at every stage of their career to come together, share ideas and feel part of something bigger.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us for the afternoon and helped make the first Crunch of 2026 such a success.
