Ibiza / Santiago, June 2025 – The WINA Festival, the international competition for independent creatives, that awards the best of independent advertising, has officially announced the winners of its tenth edition, which included participants from the Americas, Europe, Asia, Africa and Oceania. Year after year, the WINA Festival highlights the constant growth of the indie community, which has found in WINA a space for recognition and global projection.
WINA’s 10th edition had two special in-person events: the first, on June 5, at the Renaissance in Santiago, where some of our Hispanic winners joined us for a day of conferences, forums and an awards dinner. Then on June 13, we met with winners for an award-winning sunset cocktail on the rooftop of Club Ushuaïa, where some attendees continued the celebration by attending a party with DJ Calvin Harris.
