All other award winners will be announced on March 10.
The gala and award ceremony will take place on March 26 at the Marl City Theater. The Adolf Grimme Award is considered the most prestigious award for quality television in Germany. The prize is named after Adolf Grimme (1889-1963), who was Director General of the then Nordwestdeutscher Rundfunk from 1948 to 1956.
