Spider Awards celebrate 30 years of Ireland’s digital innovation

Ireland’s Premier Digital Celebration entries have opened and will remain open until 23 November 2026. The awards, in association with One4all, will take place on 19 March 2027 in the Round Room at the Mansion House, Dublin. 

The Spider Awards, Ireland’s longest-running digital awards programme, today announces the launch of its 30th ceremony, with entries officially opening. 

Celebrating three decades of digital excellence, the awards spotlight the most innovative and creative work across Ireland’s digital industry.

Over the last 30 years, Ireland’s digital industry has grown into a dynamic sector, home to global players, start-ups, and creative talent. From e-commerce platforms and data-driven marketing campaigns to AI solutions, the expertise and ambition within the industry continue to set new benchmarks. 

The Spider Awards have proudly mirrored this journey, recognising the achievements of those who not only adapt to change but who drive it, championing established leaders and emerging talent, and providing a platform to showcase the outstanding achievements shaping the future of digital in Ireland and beyond.

“It is always with great pride that we support The Spiders as headline sponsor, and to be able to collectively celebrate 30 years of excellence in the digital space is just fantastic. At our core, One4all champions recognition and rewarding great work and achievements, so it’s only natural that we once again partner with the team to recognise Ireland’s digital greats”, said Terry Spence, Director for Sales in One4all Rewards.  

Winners from last year

Winners from last year include TBWA with Chadwicks, in association with One4all, which won the Grand Prix award, and Michelle Brady with Havas Media Ireland, who won the Digital Rising Star Award.

The Spider Awards 2027 will culminate in a black-tie gala dinner on Friday, 19th March 2027, in the iconic Round Room at the Mansion House, Dublin, bringing together over 500 of Ireland’s digital leaders, innovators, and creators.
