The CN Agency Awards was a chance for
the industry’s creatives to remind
themselves of their value
The CN Agency Awards winners were handed their
gongs at a Great Gatsby-themed event at Café de
Paris, London, 13 March. Some 220 guests were
in good form, meeting at the ODEON Leicester
Square for the reception. A sign of unity and
strength for a very testing time for the events
industry.
Attendees then sat down for a three-course
meal before the awards were handed out. The
celebrations then moved to the Maddox Club,
where guests received a complementary glass of
champagne upon arrival and were treated to
hangovers on Saturday morning.
