Webster Awards – Categories & Eligibility 2025

The hallmark of journalistic excellence in British Columbia.

Each year, journalists across BC are invited to enter their best work in a variety of categories with the goal of being the winner of the coveted Webster Award — the hallmark of journalistic excellence in British Columbia.

Submissions are welcome from journalists that cover all aspects of news, subject to the eligibility requirements. An esteemed jury that is completely separate from the Foundation’s board of trustees reviews all submissions and the three finalists in each category are announced each fall. An awards event takes place later in the fall when the winners of each category are announced.

Announcements

Submissions will be accepted in May for the 2025 Webster Awards.

“No other award in Western Canadian journalism instills a sense of pride greater than a Webster. It is what many reporters have strived for during the past quarter of a century.”
