Europe’s Best in Creativity Honoured as Eurobest Announces 2025 Winners
The Eurobest Awards, celebrating Europe’s most ground breaking creativity, has unveiled the winners of its 2025 Awards alongside the winners of the 2025 Young Creatives Competition. Together, these accolades celebrate both the ground breaking work shaping Europe’s creative landscape and the emerging talent driving its future.
This year’s Awards marked a number of historic achievements. Greece secured its first ever Grand Prix, triumphing in Creative Commerce with ‘The Wedding Rice’ for Wikifarmer, created by McCann Athens. Jury president, Till Diestel, chief creative officer, Serviceplan, Germany, said, “This was a project so well crafted. An idea that really sparked within the Jury room for creating a solution to a centuries old problem. There was invention, a new product, a complete eco-system and supply chain. But more so the sustainable aspect of the project resonated. Not wasting food, rather using the non usable rice for the occasion of throwing it at weddings. A trend the Jury saw throughout. Creating/changing products to solve problems. Brilliant.”
Bosnia and Herzegovina also celebrated a milestone, winning their first Eurobest Awards with a Bronze in both PR and Glass for ‘It’s Time to Stop!’, for Bingo, by Via Media, Sarajevo. These wins underscore the growing diversity and strength of creative excellence across Europe.
Simon Cook, CEO, LIONS, commented, "Eurobest continues to set the benchmark for creative excellence across Europe. This year’s winners not only showcase bold ideas and
flawless execution but also reflect the cultural insight and innovation that drive real impact for brands and society. From historic first-time wins to work that challenges conventions, Eurobest celebrates creativity that moves the industry forward. Partnering this with the Young Creatives Competition highlights our commitment to nurturing emerging talent and ensuring the future of creativity remains as vibrant and diverse as the work we honour today. Congratulations to all the very deserving winners."

The Eurobest Young Creatives Competition gives emerging talent the chance to gain recognition within the industry and make their mark across Europe. This year participants were challenged to develop a campaign for L’Enfant Bleu, a French association dedicated to protecting children affected by violence. The brief asked teams to find a solution to make asking for help completely invisible, so children can speak up safely without fear of being seen or heard. With most abuse happening within families and 80% of victims never speaking out, the task was to create discreet, empowering solutions that encourage children aged 10-17 to reach out on their own terms - without judgment or exposure - while positioning L’Enfant Bleu as a trusted, invisible ally.
Young Creatives Competition winners are announced as follows:
Gold
Maxime Auber, copywriter and Bruce Loiseleur, art director, Le Quatre France

Silver
Charlotte Largenton, copywriter and Melvin Zinck, art director, Le Quatre France
