UPDATE

Due to recent developments with COVID-19, the Advertising Association of Winnipeg has opted to postpone this year’s event to ensure the safety of all attendees and speakers – you can read the Association’s statement here.

While we’re sorry we’re no longer able to reward you with a ticket to #DigitalDay2020 at this time, we understand and support the Advertising Association of Winnipeg’s decision to reschedule this event.

The good news? We still have two tickets to give away for this event in the future, so your entry to this contest remains valid – we’re simply moving the draw date.

Please stay tuned for information later this year!
