McDonald’s is the winner of the biggest prize in Australian advertising, along with its agencies DDB Sydney and OMD: $1 million worth of inventory as the winners of Nine’s State of Originality competition.
Determined by an all-star judging panel and the Australian public, Nine’s State of Originality challenged brands and agencies to take the platform of State of Origin and create unmissable ads that captured the attention of the millions of viewers watching each round of the series.
The winning McDonald’s ad, “End of Night”, celebrates a part of the footy seldom shown: the period several hours after the big game. We follow a street sweeper driving around the city late at night as fans, revellers, commentators and Origin greats make their way home with one thing in common: a hunger for Macca’s.

DDB’s ‘End Of Night’ campaign for McDonald’s has taken out Nine’s inaugural State of Originality competition, winning the prize of $1 million in advertising inventory across Nine’s assets.
The campaign ran in two versions across New South Wales and Queensland during State of Origin 2021, with OMD looking after media for the campaign.
Nine’s all-star judging panel, alongside the Australian public, voted to name the McDonald’s campaign the winner. Nine director of Powered, Liana Dubois, said: “My sincere congratulations go to McDonald’s and their agencies, DDB and OMD.
“They took up both the challenge and opportunity in State of Originality to produce some great work that showcases the power of original storytelling, beautifully executed and delivered within the right context.
