The PR Club of New England today announced that tickets are on sale for the 58th annual Bell Ringer Awards, one of the region’s most anticipated celebrations of excellence in public relations and communications. This year’s ceremony will take place on June 4, 2026, at the Museum of Science in Boston from 6:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. ET.
Bringing together PR, marketing, and communications professionals from across New England, the Bell Ringer Awards recognize the campaigns, teams, and individuals driving the industry forward. From breakthrough storytelling to innovative strategy, the evening showcases the creativity and impact shaping today’s communications landscape. Attendees can purchase individual tickets or premium table packages, offering teams and organizations the opportunity to sit together and share in the evening’s excitement.
Emmy Award-winning journalist Edgar B. Herwick III will serve as this year’s emcee. As host of The Curiosity Desk and co-host of The Culture Show on GBH News, Herwick is known for his engaging, curiosity-driven reporting, bringing the perfect mix of insight and energy to the stage.
In support of local journalism, the PR Club will donate all proceeds from the annual Bell Ringers 50/50 raffle to GBH. At a time when trusted local news is more important than ever, this initiative reinforces the strong connection between communicators and the journalists who inform and connect our communities.
“It’s an honor to celebrate the outstanding work of our industry while also supporting local journalism,” said Kaitlynn Cooney, PR Club president. “Every year, the Bell Ringer Awards showcase the creativity, innovation, and impact that define our field, and 2026 is no exception.
