Guild Awards 2026: last chance to enter!

If you have been thinking of submitting something you’ve produced over the past year to the Guild Awards, then you need to get on and do it! The deadline for entering is 23.59 on Monday night, 5th October, and no entries will be accepted after that date.

There are Awards up for grabs, along with cash prizes, in a wide-ranging selection of categories encompassing writers, authors, photographers, editors… There is more than likely to be an Award that meets your particular specialism.

Being shortlisted for an Award comes with a prize of its own – a complimentary ticket to the Guild’s annual Dinner where the presentations take place. The event at the RAC Club in Pall Mall is always a special way to kick off the festive season and view the Christmas lights in central London, before enjoying the company of fellow journalists, PRs and the leading lights in the automotive and motor sport industries that always attend the Dinner.

You might think you have nothing award-worthy, but it won’t be you making the decision – your News Briefs editor was stunned to win the Automotive Technology Award a few years ago, so you never know… 

There is no entry fee, the only requirement is a little time spent submitting your entry. All the categories, entry requirements and entry forms are on the Awards page of the Guild website.

Go on, have a go – and maybe it will be your name on one of the Dinner places at the RAC in December…
