Premier’s Multicultural Communications Awards
In 2025, the Premier’s Multicultural Communications Awards (PMCAs) and the Multicultural Community Medals were streamlined into one award program that focuses on a comprehensive list of medals celebrating our multicultural society. The Multicultural Community Medals program now includes three new media and marketing medals that recognise the important role stories and campaigns play in communicating to diverse audiences.

Why does the Multicultural Community Medals program include new multicultural media and marketing medals?
Following a review of the Multicultural Community Medals program and Premier’s Multicultural Communications Awards (PMCAs), the two have been streamlined into one flagship program.
What will happen to the PMCAs?
Following the launch of the new multicultural media and marketing medals under the 2025 Multicultural Community Medals program, the Premier’s Multicultural Communications Awards will be discontinued.
From 2025, winners of the multicultural media and marketing medals will be recognised at the Premier’s Harmony Dinner, the largest multicultural celebration of its kind in NSW.
The Multicultural Community Medals program and Premier’s Harmony Dinner provide an elevated platform to recognise the work that media and advertising professionals do in our communities.
Why were some PMCA categories not included in the 2025 Multicultural Community Medals program?
Following the most recent review of the Multicultural NSW portfolio of events and awards programs, it was determined that the PMCA award categories would be consolidated to three medals and combined with the wider Multicultural Community Medals program.
These three medal categories demonstrate relevance and alignment with the program objectives Combining these award programs also provides awardees the opportunity to be celebrated on a larger scale, in front of their peers, the Premier and the Minister for Multiculturalism.
