2022 Radio Mercury Awards
2022 Radio Mercury Awards

Ninety-eight radio & audio spots and campaigns made it to the finals of the 2022 Radio Mercury Awards. The submissions were created by advertising agencies, brands, production companies, radio stations and students. The 2022 finalists range from regional to large ad agencies and radio stations, as well as national and local advertisers from business categories including automotive, consumer packaged goods, entertainment, healthcare, insurance, nonprofits, quick-serve restaurants, retail, telecommunications, travel and hospitality.

"It's been amazing to work with the judging panel we put together as they really brought smart perspectives and an appreciation for the submissions," said Campbell Ewald Executive Creative Director Alejandro Ortiz, and Radio Mercury Awards Chief Judge. "I loved the debates, there was a palpable passion for the craft of radio and audio - great energy all around."

"After a two year hiatus, it was wonderful to have the Radio Mercury Awards judging in person," said RAB President/CEO Erica Farber, who is also Chair of the Radio Creative Fund. "It was equally exciting to hear what's been percolating creatively this last year."

The Radio Mercury Awards winners will be presented on Thursday, June 9 at SONY Hall in New York City. For more information, log onto radiomercuryawards.com.
