The short version.
Anything that is not here we answer by email. Just write to info@nationalsocialmediaawards.at.
When and where does the gala take place?
In November 2026 in Vienna. The exact date and the venue will be announced. If you do not want to miss anything, put your name on the presale list.
How does nominating work?
Through the form on this site. You pick one of the 19 categories, put down who you are suggesting and send it off. Every entry feeds into a shortlist per category, and after that the public decides in an open vote.
Can I nominate myself?
Yes, absolutely. Self-nominations count exactly as much as suggestions from anyone else.
When are the nominees confirmed?
As soon as nominations close. Every name then appears on the Nominees page, sorted by category.
What does a ticket cost?
Prices are confirmed once the presale opens. Anyone on the list gets the link first, before tickets go public.
What is included in a ticket?
The red carpet with press and photographers, the ceremony itself, entry to the official aftershow and a goodie bag. Please flag special requests, allergies or particular requirements early.
How do I become a partner or sponsor?
With a short email. Tell us who you are and what you have in mind, then we put together a package that fits, from category sponsorship to the goodie bag.
I am a photographer or press, how do I get in?
Write to us with a short note about your work. Places on the carpet and in the room are limited, so get in touch as early as you can.
Just write to us.
One address for everything: nominations, tickets, press and sponsorship. We usually reply within a few days.
