Verve The Live Agency has been named Best Event Team at the 2025 Campaign Experience Awards, held at The Royal Lancaster Hotel in London. The awards, which bring together the industry’s top talent in experiential and brand experience, celebrated the campaigns, people and agencies raising the bar, and Verve took home one of the night’s biggest honours.

The win adds to a string of recent honours for Verve, following a landmark year of creative activations across Ireland, the UK and Europe, and recognition at major international awards such as the European Sponsorship Awards and The Drum Awards.

“Winning Best Event Team is a huge honour, and a reflection of the passion, creativity and relentless energy our team brings to every brief,” said Verve COO Barry Muldowney. “It’s also a nod to our brilliant clients, who trust us to turn big ambitions into unforgettable moments. This one's for the whole crew.”

With offices in Dublin, London and Amsterdam, Verve’s 130-strong team delivered a series of campaigns over the past 12 months that combined bold creativity with purpose-led thinking. The agency focused on crafting meaningful, memorable experiences that resonated with audiences and culture alike.

From inclusive festival stages to reimagined brand moments in unexpected spaces, Verve’s work continues to shape how global brands connect with real people in real time, while embedding accessibility, sustainability, and social impact into its approach.

The agency’s recent B Corp certification marks a further step in aligning creative ambition with ethical practice, setting a benchmark for how experience-first agencies can lead with both purpose and performance.

“This win is for everyone who’s been part of the Verve journey, our team, our clients, and our partners,” added Muldowney. “The events industry is built on people, and this feels like one of the best accolades you can receive.”
