Now in its third year, the NNI Journalism Awards 2013 has received more entries this year than ever before. In fact, entries are up an enormous 40 per cent on last year.

The most popular categories this year were Feature Writer and Columnist/Commentator of the Year, each of which attracted almost 100 valid entries. In total, over 2,000 articles were submitted to the competition.

The judging panel of 16 eminent NNI newspaper journalists will judge the entries over the next few weeks and choose a shortlist in each category by late October (date to be announced).

The NNI Journalism Awards 2013 will be presented at a lunchtime event in Dublin’s Four Seasons Hotel on November 7th.

Tables of 10 are for sale at a rate of €1500, with individual seats priced at €150.
