134 OOH Campaigns Are in the Running for a 2019 OBIE Award

OBIE Awards for Creative Excellence in Out of Home Advertising Will be Presented May 21

February 25, 2019 (Washington, DC) – The Out of Home Advertising Association of America (OAAA) has revealed 134 finalists for the 2019 OBIE Awards. Now in its 77th year, the OBIE Awards program is the oldest and one of the most prestigious shows in advertising, awarding creative excellence in the out of home (OOH) advertising medium.

Bronze, Silver, and Gold OBIE Awards, as well as four Craft Awards, will be presented to those selected amongst this year’s 134 finalists. One Gold OBIE Award winner will receive the Platinum OBIE Award, the highest honor of the year. Campaigns were chosen from 18 different categories, including advertiser product, digital design, engagement, and customization.

“OOH has always been known as one of the most exciting and challenging advertising mediums for design and creativity,” said OAAA’s Chief Marketing Officer Stephen Freitas. “For many creatives, winning an award for OOH design is a true career milestone, and we’re excited to honor those deserving of a coveted OBIE Award.”  

OBIE Chief Judge Andy Bird, chief creative officer at Publicis New York, said, “The standard of OOH work we judged was so high. These finalists deserve to be honored for creativity in OOH that rose to the top.”

The 2019 winners will be announced at the OBIE Awards Show on Tuesday, May 21. The event will be held as part of the OAAA\Geopath OOH Media Conference + Expo at the Aria Resort in Las Vegas, NV.

A sampling of finalist images is available for download. Contact Nicole Randall, OAAA, at (202) 833-5566 or [email protected].
