Who May Enter

MPA Digital Awards are open to all MPA domestic publishing members. Digital programs entered must have been available for public use during January through December 2008.

The person submitting the entry will be considered the "nominator" and will receive all communications regarding the competition.


What to Submit
Entries must be submitted online via the Awards Entries mircosite. A digital program is considered entered after a completed entry form has been entered by MPA and payment of the entry fee is received by the MPA prior to the final competition deadline.

Entry Fees
All entries must be received by January 16 and accompanied by the entrance fee of $175. Late submissions will be accepted until January 23, accompanied by a $250 late entrance fee. The fee covers the total number of categories that a magazine chooses to enter. For example, XYZ magazine may enter a podcast, a magazine blog, and a mobile strategy, and the fee will remain $175.00.

Entry of Sites No Longer Online
All digital programs must currently be available online, including any mobile content. If the judge needs a password to access the site, please provide a password. 

Judges Access to Entry
Judges will evaluate the entries during the months of January and February.  If your site is password protected, please make sure the site is accessible to the judges during that time period.  In the event that a judge cannot access a site to evaluate it, we will make every effort to contact the nominator by email and ask for the site to be checked.


Finalists/Winners announcements

Finalists will be announced during the week of February 23, and winners will be announced at Magazine Publishers of Americas "Magazines 24/7" digital conference scheduled for March 3, at New World Stages in New York, NY.
