Loerie Direct & Effectiveness Awards

The direct marketing industry celebrated on Friday night, 1 October, by awarding 22 Gold Loeries, 7 Silver Loeries, and 10 Bronze. Trigger took the stage - over and over again - walking away with the only Grand Prix awarded on the night.

It was a fun, low-key evening at the Loerie Direct & Effectiveness Awards - the old Assegai's - with vibrant dance routines on the superbowl stage and on guests' tables, and professionally hosted by personalities, Robin Banks and Ashley Hayden, resplendent in a frothy pink confection.

This is the first time all the marketing and advertising awards are taking place under one mantel at the three-day Loerie Festival, and while undoubtedly, most of the industry is still due to arrive for the main creative awards on Sunday night, or the Loerie Golf Day on Sunday, there is a sense of excitement and build-up, with a festive atmosphere at Sun City, which is experiencing gorgeous summer weather.
