About Gold Circle Awards

Gold Circle Awards recognize extraordinary marketing, membership, and communications efforts in 16 categories that move our organizations forward. 

Marketing, membership, and communications play a vital role in associations, whether to connect with members, keep them informed of important issues, or raise awareness of programs and initiatives.

Creativity and innovation in successful marketing, membership, and communications programs should be applauded and recognized, and that’s precisely what the Gold Circle Awards are all about!

Winners are Recognized Year-Round!

The 2025 Gold Circle Awards application period is now closed. Thank you to everyone who applied this year! The next Gold Circle Awards cycle will begin in Spring 2026.
