Facebook Opens Its Ad Awards to Instagram Campaigns

Starts taking submissions

Facebook is allowing a new ad type in its yearly awards: Instagram campaigns. The Facebook Awards started taking submissions last week, and for the first time, Instagram ads are up for consideration, the social network said.

This is the fourth year Facebook is hosting the ad awards, and Adweek will be following along every step, from submissions to finalists to winners in June, when the ad world readies for the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity.

Facebook's awards offer a look at the evolution of social media advertising, which has given brands new ways to show off creativity, and new technology and data to drive campaigns.
