Colouring Heaven Pocket Wins International Publication of the Year at NMAs
Anthem celebrates the second time a title in the Colouring Heaven brand has won this prestigious award
The Anthem Publishing team was thrilled to attend the ACE Newspaper and Magazine Awards at the London Marriott Hotel on Wednesday 15th April 2026, to celebrate another incredible year in the industry.
Since its launch in 2023, Colouring Heaven Pocket has gone from strength to strength and with the hard work and support of our distributor, Marketforce, our growth in the international markets has expanded to a level where we are showing excellent success.
All the titles under our Colouring Heaven brand are seeing excellent sales both in the UK and internationally, bringing our wellness magazine to creative enthusiasts around the globe.
To be shortlisted alongside Uncut, Hello! And Daphne’s Diary was an honour in itself, and to be in such excellent company, we knew it would be tough competition.
On choosing the winner for this year, the ACE judges said Colouring Heaven Pocket stood out due to the “strong performance in the export markets” and that we “warrant an award for delivering explosive global growth.”
We are delighted that Colouring Heaven Pocket was awarded the sought-after title, and this win is especially meaningful to the team, as it marks the second time our brand has been recognised at this level, with our flagship title Colouring Heaven taking home the award in 2023.
We would like to express our gratitude to Marketforce, our talented Pocket artists and our loyal colourists, both internationally and in the UK, for their unwavering support for our Pocket magazine and all our other titles.
Anthem was also awarded a second win on the night with Ultimate Guide to ChatGPT taking home Highly Commended in the Bookazine and One Shot category.
