The HearSay Prize 2019

Since 2014, the HearSay Audio Prize has attracted incredible entries from very corner of the globe that have been infused with the adventurous spirit of HearSay. They were, by turns, sonically experimental, exquisitely simple, deliciously intimate, and above all inspirational. Our winners have been veterans and novices, sound artists, film-makers and documentary makers, students and podcasters. They’ve come from all around the world: Argentina, Israel, United States, Australia, Denmark, Belgium, Ireland, Italy, Canada, Germany, United Kingdom.

For 2019, we are keeping the focus on short form audio, maintaining the types of work that can be entered for the awards, keeping the special award categories, adding fantastic prizes and encouraging the entry of pieces not in the English language.

EARLYBIRD The entry fee for the HearSay Prize 2019 has been kept the same. We’ve also made Prize entry more accessible this time around by introducing a special EarlyBird Entry Fee which offers a 30% reduction on the Entry Fee for those who submit their entries by November 14th 2018. The FINAL DEADLINE is 10th January 2019.
