The aim of the Magazine Academy is to bring together the biggest names in the industry, with the very best students on PPA-accredited courses.  We celebrate bright, new talent and will help the magazine stars of the future by putting their work in front of the people who matter – editors and publishers. Or to think of them another way, potential employers.

​

We are delighted to launch the shortlists for our five categories, all of which are sponsored by BBC Worldwide. The categories are:

​

• The BBC Worldwide Magazine Brand of the Year

​

• The BBC Worldwide for Best New Magazine Concept 

      

• The BBC Worldwide Best New Digital Only Concept 

      

• The BBC Worldwide Outstanding Consumer Journalist 

      

• The BBC Worldwide Outstanding Non-Consumer Journalist 

     

 

The winning entries will be announced at the Magazine Academy Awards hosted by one of the UK’s most prominent magazine and digital publishers Immediate Media Co, who publish giant brands like Radio Times, Top Gear, BBC Good Food to name just a few.

 

The awards, which are on Thursday, October 19th at 6.30pm, will recognise the very best in student publishing.  Our panel of judges will be looking for innovation and creativity mixed with commercial acumen and the business savvy to stretch your brand across all platforms.
