Your extraordinary games had exemplary accessibility features and you deserve all the recognition you can get.
We know lots of you are eagerly awaiting the red carpet pics from the AGDAs. Hopefully we will have some ready for you tomorrow - our photographer should be uploading them tonight. Thanks for your patience 🙏🏻
Hmm... Sav's about 13 and a half AGDAs tall... New unit of measurement anyone?
✨These trophies are heading out to their forever homes tomorrow! ✨
We can't wait to see them get to their owners, and thank everyone for their patience in getting these prepared during lockdown!
Whether you decide to dress up or keep the PJs on - (Or both!) we want to see your AGDAs fashion this year!
