A NOTE FROM THE APA PRESIDENT AND COMPETITION CHAIRPERSON
The Audie Awards®, sponsored by the Audio Publishers Association (APA), is the premier awards program in the United States recognizing distinction in audiobooks and spoken-word entertainment. 

Publishers and rights-holders enter titles in various categories for recognition of achievement. Finalists are selected, and from that group one winner is awarded.

Finalists will be announced in February 2025 and showcased on the APA website, to the press, and in APA materials. Winners will be announced at the Audies Gala, planned for March 2025, in New York City.

All submissions for the 2025 Audie Awards® Competition will be managed digitally with continued appreciation to Audible.com. Publishers whose titles are not on Audible may submit audiobooks via a dropbox link.

On behalf of the Audio Publishers Association Board, we invite you to join us in this celebration of the spoken word!
