As an industry, we gather round the table with different perspectives, different tastes and different ways of doing things. Sometimes we clash. Sometimes we compete. But always, we care deeply about what we create.
The truth is, the rivalry is what makes us stronger. Every pitch we fight for, every idea we chase, every sibling-like squabble across the boardroom table, it all pushes us to do better. To raise the bar. To prove that Adelaide can create work that stands tall on any stage.
The 48th Annual AADC Awards is our industry's very-own family dinner. A night to set the competition aside and celebrate what we’ve built together: the craft, the campaigns and the community that makes this industry what it is.
Rivalries may drive us, but it’s passion that unites us. At Family Dinner, we'll raise a glass to both. So pull up a chair, and potentially even win one, too.
See you at dinner. Secure your tickets now.
About the Night
The 2025 AADC Awards will be held on Thursday the 18th of September at Adelaide Symphony Orchestra's Grainger Studio on Hindley Street. Tickets are $190, and include dinner, drinks, a whole lot of family-loving fun and the much-loved after party.
Doors, welcome drinks and the finalist gallery from 6:30pm, with formalities to kick off from 7:30pm sharp.
Please note, if you're booking tickets as a group, please nominate a "Table Captain" for your ticket at checkout so we can seat you together.
About the Awards
The AADC Awards, now in their 48th year, recognise, celebrate and promote the best of South Australia's Advertising and Design capabilities on an annual basis.
This year, the Jury was made up of over 70 local, national and international industry heavyweights who generously donated their time and energy to the task of viewing hundreds of entries across a broad range of categories.
The Awards promote the next generation of creative talent through the Student Awards, and acknowledge contribution to the Club and the industry at large through the Watering Can. The Awards are a time of reflection, celebration and a time to to come together as an industry. We can't wait to see you there.
