This is the fourth year of the free-to-enter awards, run by Digital Cinema Media in partnership with Campaign, which recognise and honour the best cinema advertising of the past year.
Channel 4 and OMD UK scooped last year’s Grand Prix – awarded to the most effective and forward-thinking campaign - with "Superhumans", which aimed to promote awareness of the Rio Paralympics and help change public attitudes to disability.
Prizes this year include a red carpet experience for four people and a cinema screen-time campaign to the value of £100,000. Winners will be feted at an evening ceremony at London’s Ham Yard Hotel on 18 September.
The closing date for entries is 13 July.
Alongside the Grand Prix, there are six category prizes up for grabs in 2018:
• Best use of cinema (small)
• Best use of cinema (large)
• Best long-copy cinema campaign
