2026 Luum Awards Enters Final Stretch

Just 30 days left to compete for recognition for your purpose-driven communications.

October 2nd is the deadline for submissions to the Luum Awards, meaning that agencies and organizations only have 30 more days to secure their participation in the international festival that recognizes purpose-driven creativity capable of generating a positive impact.

If you have cases that demonstrate an exceptional combination of creativity, innovation, purpose and impact, then we invite you to participate inLuum 2026.

The highest recognitions for the world’s best campaigns

The Luum Awards does not only seek to reward creativity. It seeks to identify ideas that represent a new way of understanding the role of creativity in society.

The top awards, Grand Prix and Titanium, will be defined by judges in Switzerland, while the celebration will take place in Costa Rica.

The evaluation process will consist of an international panel of judges that will select the works worthy of Gold and Silver trophies, then, the festival’s top awards — Grand Prix and Titanium —will be determined by a handful of international creatives that will gather at the Hilton Convention Centre in Geneva, Switzerland.

Some of the Luum Awards 2026 jury members include: Ioana Mocanu (Nestlé, Adriatic, Bulgaria, Romania), Begoña Laviña (Save the Children, Mexico), Tiffany Chung (VML, Germany), Lucas Santos (Africa DDB, Brazil), Julien Tan (CNN, France), Fernanda Jimenez (Amnesty International Mexico), Rafael Barbosa (Publicis, Brazil), Igor Fernandes (Mastercard, Brazil), Felicity McLean (WPP, UK), Camila Rodrigues (72andSunny, Netherlands), Melissa Charland (VML, Canada), Michael Haber (Horizon FCB, KSA), among others.

This year, Luum’s altruistic spirit will head to Costa Rica, where participants and judges will be invited to participate in volunteer initiatives that seek to contribute directly to building a better world.

In other words, the 2026 edition will host two in-person events: one in Switzerland, where the best purpose-driven creativity will be selected, and Costa Rica, where that purpose will be converted into action.

30 days left to prepare submission

The October 2 deadling will be the last opportunity for agencies and brands to submit their best work to the 2026 Luum Awards.

Luum seeks campaigns that have demonstrated that creativity can be much more than a communication tool: it can solve problems, mobilize communities, protect the planet, improve lives and generate real change.

Some ideas get attention.

Others get awards.

The best ones change the world.
