Eventex Awards 2026 follows a stellar 15th year, which saw as many as 1239 entries, the highest-ever number in the awards’ history. The new edition promises to level up recognition, courtesy of new changes, underpinning Eventex Awards’ unwavering commitment to creativity, innovation, and excellence.
- A new pricing structure that makes entering the awards more affordable, while offering new premium opportunities for recognition for the truly exceptional.
- New Grand Prix categories in every track with limited availability, reserved for game-changing creativity that sets the ultimate benchmark for excellence.
- A category refresh to reflect the growing importance of sustainability, wellness, and attendee experience.
- A greater focus on objectivity, with the removal of public entry feedback and individual scores, enhancing the integrity of jury deliberation.
“With this year’s changes, and especially our new Grand Prix categories, we’re further elevating recognition and are looking forward to celebrating the outstanding creativity and innovation in the world of events and experience marketing,” commented Ovanes Ovanessian, co-founder of Eventex Awards.
All entries and overall scores will be made public alongside the winners’ announcement, reaffirming Eventex Awards’ commitment to transparency.
The awards’ evaluation will also continue to employ score normalisation, a mathematical formula that ensures that every entry is scored based on the same set of standards, regardless of the number of jury members evaluating it.
