Under the watchful eye of a 17-member international jury, the winners of Conventa Best Event Award 2021 were officially announced. The grand finale of the competition took place on Friday, 27 August 2021 in the Švicarija Creative Centre.

Conventa Best Event Award is an annual competition that awards the best events in the region of New Europe. The competition was established as part of the Conventa brand. For the past six years, the grand finale of the competition has been taking place at the Conventa Crossover conference. The evaluation of registered events follows a unique 80:20 model (80% of the votes come from the jury and 20% from the audience at the Conventa Crossover conference).
In the first phase of evaluation, the jury carried out a pre-selection of the registered projects and chose 20 events that made it into the semi-final. In the second phase, all members of the jury panel evaluated each project according to the following criteria: creativity, relevance, innovation, execution, event results, event communication, sustainable policies, legacy, and overall final impression. Based on the evaluated criteria, 18 projects exceeded the threshold and moved into the finals.
The finalists presented their projects on Thursday, 26 August 2021 at 17:00 at the GR – Ljubljana Exhibition and Convention Centre. Attendees were able to support their favourite event agency by joining the live voting session and contributing 20% to the final score. The grand finale, where the winner was chosen, took place on Friday, 27 August 2021 in the Švicarija Creative Centre in Ljubljana’s Tivoli Park.
