The 30th Annual Webby Awards, known as one of the most prestigious honors for excellence on the internet, is now open for entries — but time is running out. The final entry deadline is Friday, December 19, 2025. Creators working in podcasts, digital media, websites, apps and more are encouraged to submit their best work before the cutoff.
For three decades, the Webby Awards have celebrated standout digital creativity and innovation from around the world, earning praise as the “Internet’s highest honor.” The awards recognize excellence across diverse categories such as Video & Film, Advertising & Media, Podcasts, Social & Games, and more.
This year’s awards spotlight storytelling and innovation in audio and podcasting with expanded honors that reflect how creators are shaping the digital landscape. Podcast categories include traditional audio entries as well as new recognitions such as Best New Podcast and expanded options that celebrate innovation in format, content and reach.
Submitting work to the Webby Awards places projects alongside previous winners and nominees that have included celebrated podcasts and creators in the industry. Past podcast winners and honorees range from narrative series to independent audio experiments that have pushed the medium forward and earned global recognition.
Entrants to the Webby Awards compete for two types of honors: The Webby Award, chosen by the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences (IADAS), and the People’s Voice Award, voted on by fans worldwide — a testament to both professional and public acclaim.
Podcasters, digital storytellers and creators of all sizes have until Friday, December 19th to enter their projects and join three decades of Webby winners celebrated for shaping the future of internet culture, creativity and innovation.
