South Africa’s One Show – all the winners & the work 2024
It’s time for The One Show results everyone! When we heard South Africa had 21 finalists this year we damn near Black Eyed Pea’d ourselves and exclaimed ‘Boom Boom Pow’. Now it’s great to see this incredible work convert. Congratulations to all of you! With over 50 countries and regions around the world entering, this is big for South Africa. Well done.
The One Show 2024 awards ceremony was held on May 17, 2024 in New York during Creative Week.
