NAB Crystal Awards Window Wide Open

•  The National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) is accepting entries for the 40th annual NAB Crystal Radio Awards, which honor outstanding community service efforts by radio stations from the past year (October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025). Winners will receive national recognition during a special ceremony at the NAB State Leadership Conference in Washington, DC, on March 3, 2026.

For decades, the NAB Crystal Radio Awards has provided national recognition to radio stations for their year-round commitment to serving communities. A panel of judges representing the broadcast industry and community service organizations will review applications and select 50 finalists and 10 winners.

Stations must submit an online entry through My NAB detailing their community service efforts from the past year.

The deadline for entry submissions is October 31. Finalists will be announced in February.

Entry information is available HERE, or by contacting Tobi Hall, NAB Sr. Director of Awards, Events and Member Experience at thall@nab.org.
