Cristina Blanaru Creativity, Festivals & Awards

Eurobest announced it started the period for delegate registration, offering discounts until October 1st for the European festival and awards for the creative communications industry, scheduled to take place in Lisbon on December 4th-6th.

This is the last year Eurobest takes place in Portugal and, in 2014, the festival will be organized in a new European location.

The delegate packages, with access to the full program of seminars, workshops, Europe’s best work on display, three nights of networking and awards ceremony and after party, are Full Delegate (€399 before 1 October, €499 afterwards), Young Creative (young creatives aged 28 and under – €325), Young Marketer (young marketers aged 30 and under – €325), Student (full time students aged 23 and under – no access to awards or after party – €99)

This year, Eurobest is offering also dedicated delegate group rates for 10-14 people (€350 per person before 1 October / €450 after), 15-19 people ( €325 per person before 1 October / €425  after) and 20+ people (€300 per person before 1 October / €400 after). Also, for next generation, group packages are 5-9 people under 28s/30s (€300 per person) and 10+ people under 28s/30s (€280 per person).

Offering huge opportunities for the younger generation, a series of tailored programs and competitions will run throughout the Festival. The Young Creatives Competition challenges teams to create a campaign to fit a brief set by a charity and see competitors from across Europe battle it out to take home the gold medal. Intensive and unique training will take place across academies which will include the Young Marketers Academy, providing young professionals working for client companies training on the major issues surrounding creativity in communications, the Young Account Executive Academy, designed to help them lead ground-breaking creativity, and the Young Media Academy, which is new for 2013 and will offer concentrated learning themed around creativity in media.

Eurobest offers a really special few days providing key values which include learning, networking, inspiration and celebration. Not only is it a chance to see the best work in one place but it is also a platform for people from all corners of Europe to come together and discuss industry matters. It’s a real distilled environment of creativity and we’re delighted to be looking forward to the 26th Festival
