Awards Season – how to get involved
Awards Season is the best time of year for brands to reach a more discerning ABC1 affluent audience, with 29% of ABC1 adults agreeing that they’re more likely to see a film at cinema if it’s nominated for Oscars or BAFTAs.
Cinema as a whole delivers an upmarket audience but during awards season the ABC1 profile leaps and 73% of awards season cinemagoers will be ABC1 adults.
