42nd Annual ACE Awards

2020, amongst other things, was the year of the cancellation: Birthdays. Vacations. Celebrities.

All cancelled. En masse and indefinitely.

But creativity, once trafficked in slightly-too-warm boardrooms and sparked by chance hallway encounters, found a home in video calls, more video calls and somehow, incredibly, even more video calls.

The 42nd Annual ACE Awards is our collective celebration of the enduring power of creativity and the fine folks who manifest it.

Oh, and guess what — it's a video call.

Good Fortune From ATB

Our good friends (and 42nd ACE Awards sponsors) ATB have a special gift for everyone who purchases a ticket to this year's show! After your ticket purchase, ACE will reach out for individual mailing information (if you are comfortable sharing, of course).

Why? Well, some local retail therapy may be in your future!

How To Access The Award Show

The 42nd ACE Awards will be virtually hosted on the interactive event platform Hopin.

**After you purchase your ticket on Eventbrite (i.e., here), this is how you will access the event on May 15**

• Prior to the event, ACE will e-mail you a private link to register for the event on Hopin. Follow the link to "purchase" your free Hopin ticket for the ACE Awards (you don't have to pay as you will have already paid on Eventbrite).

• Following this you will be asked to register for a Hopin profile if you don’t already have one.

• After creating a Hopin account, you'll be prompted to fill out your profile information. This information needs to be completed in order to join the event.

• Once your profile is created, you’re good to go! You’ll be able to fully access the virtual ACE Awards event five minutes before it starts on May 15.

To alleviate any confusion, ACE will be sending out a handy How-To guide for getting the most out of the virtual ACE Awards experience.
