Audience Award
An audience award is typically an award at a film festival (or some other type of cultural festival or similar competition) which is selected by the audience attending the festival, rather than by the festival jury or a group of critics. Examples A well-known example of audience awards are those given out at the Sundance Film Festival, which is one of the leading independent film festivals in the world.
