The Gold Siren client will receive one ticket to the Cannes Festival, travel and accommodation.

“The 30-minute Siren Awards show will be packed with great content and will celebrate some of the best radio ads that have run in Australia this year,” said CRA CEO Ford Ennals

Over 70 agencies across Australia applied, with the finalists this year including M&C Saatchi, BMF, Eardrum, Marketforce, The Monkeys, Rare, AT Creative, The Hallway, The Royals and Wildings Creative, along with sound studios Cue Sound, Massive Music, MDS Audio, The Studio at SCA, and Soundbyte.

“There won’t be any envelope-gates or interminable speeches, but there will be recognition of the crème de la crème of radio ad creativity, with absolutely fantastic prizes.”
