WHAT ARE THE DSTV CONTENT CREATOR AWARDS? The DStv Content Creator Awards were developed to celebrate local content creators, brands and agencies behind some of the country's top content. More than 1500 entries were received across 23 categories over 14 weeks.
As a platform that continuously looks to inspire authentic creativity and amazing content, this for us forms part of the many ways in which we recognise and celebrate our local talent, Saul Moross, TikTok's Creator Operations Lead for sub-Saharan Africa said in a statement.
Our community can look forward to fun hashtag challenges and informative creator workshop live streams, added Moross.
The awards are set to take place on 10 September at The Galleria in Johannesburg.
