The European Animation Awards Association was founded in 2017 by renowned animation professionals to celebrate the art of animation. The Association organizes the annual European Animation Awards (The Emile Awards) to celebrate and honor the talent and achievements in animation, from independent animators to animation studios throughout Europe.
In 2023, the Association was revived, and the third edition of The Emile Awards Ceremony is held on Monday, 23 September 2024, at the historic Apollon Municipal Theatre of Hermoupolis, Syros Island, Greece in the framework of ANIMASYROS International Animation Festival. Official presentations will be held in June at World Festival of Animated Film Animafest ZAGREB and ANNECY International Animation Film Festival and Market.
