The Kuwait Advertising Awards it currently taking place at the Salwa Events Hall near Marina Crescent. I just got a message from my sister who is at the awards ceremony. The event started 1 hour late at 7 and they started of with speeches, according to her its very boring. I received another message from another art director from my agency who is there and according to him the event actually turned out to be very formal, so Nataly was right when she said it was a formal event.
Update: My sis called me after the event finished. Basically out of 22 awards my agency (JWT) took half of them while Nats agency (Saatchi&Saatchi) took the other half. Just to make it clear out of all the awards Saatchi took none were for Kuwait work, and out of all the awards my agency took only 1 was for Kuwait. The event supposingly was very unorganized and chaotic, my sister should be posting about it tonight on her blog.

I’m just frustrated, the whole event was pure crap. It would been better if we didn’t have anything.
so basically its called Kuwait adv awards only cause its taking place in Kuwait
Tata come on, don’t tell me you were expecting it to be any better?
Mar, I have no clue why they called it Kuwait Advertising Awards when Kuwait played such a small role. I am just glad I took the decision not to go. If it was up to me I wouldn’t even participate.
