The Seven Weeks of Emmy® Entry begins NOW as we welcome submissions to the 2023 Heartland Emmy® Awards Competition.
With over 150 categories in News, Programs, Sports, Spot Announcements, Crafts and Special Achievement, your work will find a place to shine!
What’s the process?
Entries are made via your account (Membership or Guest) in Emmy® Express. You have til Friday, February 3, 2023 to submit and pay; upload your video by 2/10. Then your entry goes out to peer judges around the country who look at Content, Creativity and Execution for each video. Nominations are announced late in May, and the Awards Galas (Denver and Oklahoma City) take place on Saturday, July 15, 2023.
What’s eligible?
