The awards program that recognises the best content and social media work in Australia.

For five years, Content Summit – the country’s leading brand and content marketing conference – has championed the craft of content. Now we’re recognising the people, brands and agencies doing it best.

Introducing the Content Summit Awards.

From a single brilliant post to a year-long content strategy; from a creator building an audience from scratch to an agency delivering for clients at scale; these awards celebrate the full breadth of what great content looks like in 2027.

Entries are judged by a panel of senior industry practitioners and winners are presented in front of hundreds of attendees at Brisbane Powerhouse. There’s no better room to have your work recognised in.
