DEADLINE: Third Coast Audio Competition

Event Date:

April 17, 2025

The mission of the independent Third Coast Competition is to welcome the most diverse array of audio stories possible, in any language, from anywhere in the world, to provide affordable rates for all through our Collective Pricing Model, and to create a Call for Entries that encourages creativity, experimentation, and inclusion in the narrative audio industry. Our work is to listen to, discover, and showcase the best work being made in narrative audio today.

As a thank you for the community support in helping us build this new reality, our first deadline of the 2024-25 Competition Cycle — the We Need Third Coast Flash Sale Deadline — will be two weeks after our Dec 3 launch date, and will feature our lowest rates of the Competition.

The Third Coast Competition will look very similar to past years. Our goal is to maintain categories that welcome the most diverse range of narrative audio work from around the world, in any language. We want to hear your narrative audio works in documentary, non-fiction, fiction, sound art, oral history, audio walks, speculative fiction, audio theater, and audio experiments that have no formal genre.
