Thank you for your interest in contributing to AAF Dallas's mission to elevate the outstanding talent in the Dallas advertising industry. We are looking for the support of advertisers like yourself to help us produce our 64th annual American Advertising Awards gala. Hosted at Gilley's Dallas, the 2026 Dallas American Advertising Awards Gala will showcase local talent that is making history.

The American Advertising Awards are the largest advertising awards program in the United States that celebrates creativity and excellence in advertising. Entry into the American Advertising Awards begins with your local AAF chapter like AAF Dallas. A jury of advertising peers from around the nation judged the local competition which determines who will receive the honor of Gold and Silver ADDY Awards, or an Honorable Mention. Only the best work will then move on to the district and national levels for the opportunity to elevate your agency as one of the best in the industry.

About the Suits Awards: AAF Dallas is excited to have nearly doubled the Suits Award categories to represent all levels of marketing professionals that make great ads happen. Suits honorees are the ambassadors of creative work who, in the past, may have gone unrecognized during the Creative Awards Season. They put in the work behind the great work in the advertising industry. These unsung heroes and heroines have toiled behind the scenes. We think it's time we recognize those who support great creative.

Submit Suits nominations through February 6, 2026! 

About the AAF Dallas: The oldest civic group in the city, AAF Dallas is the preeminent organization for advertising professionals in North Texas. It is where people come together to network, learn and forge the personal and professional relationships they will value throughout their careers.

One of the largest of the 200 chapters of the American Advertising Federation, AAF Dallas is part of a nationwide, grassroots organization that derives its strength from the energy and contributions of its members. We hope you will join us as a sponsor for the 2026 Dallas American Advertising Awards and help us celebrate that amazing energy!
