Monday 25th January – the midpoint of the January Furniture Show – will see the Excellence in Furniture Awards return to the NEC Birmingham, celebrating the industry's top people and businesses across 11 categories.
This year's inaugural awards presentation welcomed more than 350 guests to the NEC’s Concourse Suites to an evening packed with hospitality, humour, and vociferous recognition for the industry’s star players (read our review here).
“Building on the legacy of The Furniture Awards, this new celebration brought the entire industry together to recognise outstanding achievement across brands, retailers, manufacturers, service providers, and the individuals behind the success,” says Paddy Wallace, head of sales at The Furniture Shows.
The Furniture Makers' Company returns as the awards' official charity partner in 2027, and Furniture News is again poised to deliver exclusive detailed coverage of the entrants and the event itself.
"Think your business, team or achievements deserve to be recognised? Now’s the time to put them forward," urges The Furniture Shows team. "With 11 categories celebrating the people and businesses raising the bar across the furniture industry, this is your chance to showcase what you’ve achieved and get the recognition it deserves."
Tables and tickets sales are open now, and the award entry window closes on 16th October. Find out more about entering and attending here.
