The two agencies, who collaborated on 80 individual events during May and October 2013 for the gin brand, also scooped three further gongs at this year's leading industry awards ceremony, including Best New Event, Best Brand Activity at a Festival or Public Event and Creative Event of the Year. A total of 24 awards were handed out on the night.
More than 700 industry professionals attended the glitzy ceremony at east London venue Troxy, which was hosted by television personality Rick Edwards and featured a 1920s theme. This came in the form of entertainment from dance group Swing Patrol, a paparazzi-themed stunt at the entrance of the venue created by agency George P Johnson and food and drinks supplied by catering partner Zafferano.
The final of corporate entertainment competition Beat the Brief, organised by Sternberg Clarke, also took place on the night with four acts going head-to-head. Beatboxing and a cappella group Beatvox was crowned the winner by the audience, who voted for their favourite act via Twitter.
An after-party was hosted at the venue by London venue Cirque le Soir, who brought a touch of their risqué theatrics to round off the night.
Yasmin Arrigo, editor-in-chief at Event magazine, said: "The turnout for this year's awards has been incredible and we're delighted that so many representatives from agencies, venues, suppliers and associations attended our annual celebration of what the industry has achieved in the last 12 months."
