Entry Criteria and Eligibility

  • Applicants must be 18 or over
  • Applicants must be resident in Ireland or of Irish nationality.
  • Whilst the competition is open to all Irish writers, Danú Media are committed to promoting equal opportunities and diversity in the media industry in Ireland. We therefore strongly encourage applications from those from diverse and under-represented groups.
  • If you submit an Irish language script, we ask you also to submit an English translation of the script.
  • As well as individual writers, writing partnerships of two (max) may enter. Scripts submitted must be written by the partnership.
