Thinkbox
The Thinkbox TV Planning Awards celebrate brilliantly effective uses of TV and recognise the people and teams behind them. Brilliant planning – the kind that delivers brand growth and business benefits – lies at the heart of all successful advertising.
TV also holds a unique power to shape culture and drive social change, with many of the most influential and memorable campaigns proving how the medium can move society forward.
These awards are about finding, recognising and celebrating the most innovative and successful TV activity, whether that be as part of a multi-media advertising campaign or simply shining on its own.
There are ten enterable categories this year:
- Best TV newcomer
- Best small budget use of TV
- Best use of sponsorship
- Best use of content
- Best TV ad planning
- Best use of addressability
- Best ongoing effectiveness
- Young TV Planner of the Year

Please note, for all entries, referenced TV activity must have taken place largely within the calendar year January to December 2025. Entries are open to UK campaigns only.
