Countdown To The Virtual Licensing Awards 2020

There’s just 24 hours to go until The Licensing Awards 2020, with the final touches being put in place for this year’s special virtual event. The awards evening is free to attend and will take place from 6.15pm on Wednesday December 16.

Despite the inherent challenges this ongoing period has presented, the character and entertainment licensing community has done itself proud on the product, retail, property, marketing and promotional fronts.

Thanks to technology, entering and judging took place online, with the awards ceremony (and pre and post celebrations) being hosted on the Hopin digital platform.
