Winners will be announced on Tuesday, April 21, 2026, and honored in a star-studded show at Cipriani Wall Street.

Past 5-Word Speeches include: Kim Kardashian’s “Nude Selfies Till I Die,” Prince’s “Everything You Think is True,” Steve Wilhite’s “It’s Pronounced ‘Jif’ not ‘Gif’,” NASA’s “Houston We Have A Webby,” and SZA’s “The Internet Scares Me. Thanks.”

It’s no small feat to stand out among nearly 13,000 entries, and this year’s work reflects the energy, originality, and ambition shaping the Internet right now.”
“Cheese saved my life, and it could save yours too,” said Moskowitz. “For this passion project to be recognized by the Webby Awards alongside so many other incredible creators is humbling. We’d love the public’s support in the People’s Voice vote.”
