Where journalism meets its moment.

For nearly three decades, the EPPY Awards have honored excellence in digital journalism. What began in 1996 as a bold step into online storytelling has become one of the industry’s most prestigious competitions — celebrating the work of news organizations that inform, engage, and inspire across every platform and format.

From daily news sites to documentaries, data visualizations to newsletters, podcasts to social video, the EPPYs recognize the best of how journalism is created and shared in today’s world — with categories that reflect innovation, impact, and the evolving craft of digital storytelling.

Past winners include household names like CNN, NBC News, The Boston Globe, and NPR — as well as rising independents and student publications. What unites them all is a commitment to serving audiences with clarity, creativity, and truth.


Entries for the 2025 EPPY Awards open Monday, July 28

Winners will be announced in late fall.

If your newsroom, nonprofit, or independent outlet produced great work over the past year — this is your moment.

Honor the work. Earn the recognition. Join the legacy.
