The Young Values Award is sponsored by Eroski, the Cultural Values Award is sponsored by the Tres Reyes Hotel in Pamplona, the Social Values Award is sponsored by Banco Santander, the Sports Values Award is sponsored by Urzante, the Business Values Award is sponsored by CaixaBank and the exemplary town award is sponsored by the Government of Navarra .

## History

The Navarra Television Awards are born from the initiative of Carlos Ciriza, a Navarrese sculptor, who, supported by Navarra Television, decides to start some awards that bear the name of the communication medium.

## Election process

Approximately three months before the gala, a web form is opened where viewers submit their proposals. It is then a team from Navarra Television who selects the three people finally nominated who will compete for the award. From then on, a web form is opened where viewers can vote for their favorites, and on the day of the gala the winner is announced, who is the one who has received the most votes.

## Gala

The gala is organized as follows: it is organized in the afternoon of any given day, and in it, a trophy designed by Carlos Ciriza is presented to the winner of the award. To do this, each category is awarded at different times, separated from each other by performances by Navarran and national artists, and each award is announced by two journalists from Navarra (not necessarily from Navarra Television) by opening an envelope at the time. Moments before, a video made with each of the candidates is shown, and the winner receives the trophy from the sponsors of the value itself.
