Awards voting and winners

Once submissions close, the jury narrows the field and then the FOOH community picks the winners. So the jury decides who makes the cut, and the public vote decides who wins.

How public voting works

Voting runs within a set window after the shortlist is announced (the awards page shows the current dates):

• Sign in to vote. You need a FOOH.com account — anonymous votes don't count.
• One vote per category. Pick the shortlisted entry you think should win in each category.
• You can change your vote. Cast a vote, then switch it to a different entry in the same category any time while voting is open. Your latest choice is the one that counts.
• You can vote for your own work.

Voting only opens during the window. Outside it, the page shows the results rather than a ballot.

How winners are decided

Entries move through the stages in order:

1. Jury longlist, then shortlist — the jury reviews every paid entry, draws a longlist, then a shortlist from it. Only shortlisted work reaches the public.
2. Public vote — community votes rank the shortlisted entries in each category.
3. Gold, Silver, Bronze — the top-ranked entries in each category take the medals by rank: first is Gold, second Silver, third Bronze.

Seeing the winners

Winners are announced on FOOH.com, receive a physical trophy, and are featured across the site and our social channels. The winners showcase lives on the awards page and stays up permanently, so each year's medalists keep their gallery.
