About the Allie Awards

Advancing the event industry through innovation, excellence and support for emerging talent.


With the goal of fostering unity and excellence within the local event industry, the first Allie Awards were concepted in 1988 by Tim Lundy and Judy Cook. Chosen for its symbolism of unity, the name "Allies" reflects the collaborative spirit of Atlanta's event companies striving together towards excellence in design, planning, and production. Today, more than three decades later, the Allie Awards have blossomed into a significant event, featuring over 30 categories that celebrate the industry's evolution and talent. Submissions are anonymous and judged and voted on by event professionals in major cities outside the state of Georgia.


Beyond recognizing excellence, the Allie Awards have contributed to charitable causes within the Atlanta community., setting a precedent for similar awards across North America and inspiring the creation of the International ILEA Espirit Awards.
