2026 Anvils

The Work. The Anvils. The Gala.

The 30th Anvils celebrates the very best creative work our industry has produced over the past year. It is one of the largest and most respected awards shows in Western Canada, with winners earning points towards Strategy’s Creative Report Card.

This is where ideas meet recognition. Where bold thinking, craft, and execution are judged by an international panel and put on a global stage.

But more than that, this is your night.

A night to see your work celebrated.

A night to hear your name called.

A night to step up and collect the Anvil you’ve earned.

So show up. Bring your team. Take the stage.

Then raise a glass and celebrate with the people pushing this industry forward.

The work deserves it.

And so do you.
