Ramadan ad spots have traditionally presented an opportunity for advertisers and consumers to enjoy the most coveted advertising efforts of the year. In honor of the efforts behind creating memorable Ramadan ads in the spirit of giving and community, The Lantern is a new YouTube award that picks a winner determined by an algorithm based on engagement and views received by the holy month’s end.
At the end of Ramadan, The Lantern award will be announced for the creative agency, media agency and advertiser behind the winning video. Questions? Email thelantern@google.com.
Here are the submissions competing for the award:
