2. PR Week Awards
The largest PR industry awards in New York are hosted by PR Week, one of the industry's top trade publications. The ceremony marked its seventh year on March 2, when the event filled Tavern on the Green with hundreds of corporate PR pros. Jennifer Burke, PR Week's event manager, planned the event; Empire Entertainment booked comedian Adam Ferrera to host the ceremony.
3. PRSA New York Chapter's Big Apple Awards
Some of the world's biggest and most prestigious PR agencies call New York home, making the city's PRSA chapter and its awards among the most coveted in the industry. The ceremony morphed from a lunch to a dinner last year. "The organization just wanted to change the tone: make it more elegant and more upscale to our potential audience," says executive director Carol Davis-Grossman. "We had increased the ticket cost significantly [from $95 in 2004 to $195 in 2005], and it still drew more people than the year before." The Big Apples will take over the Rainbow Room on May 25. Al Roker will give this year's keynote speech.
