UK Creative Festival

UK Creative Festival The UK Creative Festival. Home of the Creative Circle Awards. The Creative Circle is a literal circle. With the circle complete, the cycle continues.

A cycle, encompassing all the creative talent in the UK’s communications industry. We reward the people at the top and encourage them to help the people at the bottom. And predominantly, we do this in two ways:
First, as an awards body run and judged by creatives. Recognising and showcasing great ideas, fresh thinking and craft. Second, as an education body, run and developed by creatives. With inspiring workshops, enlightening talks, and new initiatives for those starting out. Eventually, the people at the bottom become the people at the top. Out with the old. In with the new.

Creative’s sure know how to party! 💃🕺🪩

This year our Summer Party was powered by the lovely folk at Pitch & Sync and what a night it was.

Taking place at the end of Day 1 at Faith in Strangers, a cornerstone of Margate’s creative scene, the evening was as always one of the highlights of the festival.

With a laid-back coastal club vibe, killer margaritas flowed from the bar and the soundtrack was packed with exactly what you want to hear when you hit the dancefloor, with tunes spun by special guest DJ Grace Sands and Pitch & Sync founder Alex Lavery.

“Pitch & Sync turns 20 this year, and celebrating with the UK Creative Festival felt like the perfect way to kick things off: great music, great people and a room full of the creative community we’ve grown up alongside for two decades. Speaking on the panel was a genuine highlight too. Thanks to Dina Green, Jeremy Green and the whole team for having us.” — Alex Lavery, Founder, Pitch & Sync

Trading desks for deckchairs the UKCF delivered everything a good festival should: sunshine, networking, difficult conversations, and sand in unexpected places!

We couldn’t do it without all the incredible people who join us in Margate to get creative, so massive thank you to all of you who joined us. Whether this was your 6th festival or your first, we hope you had as much fun as we did.

And of course, none of it would be possible without our amazing partners so the biggest thank you goes to you –

The Best of British Creativity exhibition was back at this year’s UK Creative Festival showcasing the UK’s most outstanding creative work of the past year.

Featuring highlights from the Creative Circle Awards 2026 shortlist, alongside the prestigious Gold of Gold winner and the winning work from 2025’s Most Creative Company winners, the exhibition brought together the very best ideas and craftsmanship from across the industry.

More than just a display, it was a celebration of the UK creative sector at its finest, featuring work chosen by creatives, for creatives. At its heart was the spirit of the Creative Circle Awards, which recognises exceptional talent, champions enduring ideas, and supports the next generation of creative voices.

This time last week the UK creative community were trading desks for deckchairs as the industry descended on Margate for the 6th annual UK Creative Festival.

The event delivered everything a good festival should: sunshine, networking, difficult conversations, and sand in unexpected places!

This was definitely seen at our legendary Sandcastle competition, hosted by Bauer Media Outdoor UK and run by Plunge Creations

As you would expect from a bunch of creatives the creations were truly extraordinary. It was a tightly fought competition but Dodgems & Floss were crowned ‘king of the castle’ for their amazing structure.
