The 3,708 entries of this year's red dot award: communication design have come from 31 nations. And a successful competition deserves a worthy awards presentation. Therefore we invite you to join us at this annual highlight and to celebrate the award-winners together with international guests from the creative industry in the special ambience of the Essen Philharmonic Concert Hall in Germany.

For the nominees of the honorary prizes the competition remains exciting until the very end: This year the 'red dot: grand prix' can be awarded among all the winners of a 'red dot: best of the best' to the best work of each category. The honorary title 'red dot: junior prize' for the best student work for the first time comes with a prize-money of 10,000 euros. As the highlight of the event the winners of the honorary prizes will be announced by renowned representatives of this year's expert jury at the very end of the awards presentation.

Following the awards presentation, the red dot design museum will open its gates for the vernissage of the special exhibition, which will present all the award-winning works to the public for the duration of four weeks. The Late-Night-Party marks the finale of the event and celebrates the award-winners into the small hours.
