The EXHIBITOR Magazine EuroShop Awards Ceremony took place on Wednesday 19 February, the final day of EuroShop 2020, in Dusseldorf, Germany, where the most beautiful stands of the world’s leading retail trade fair were recognised with awards or honorable mentions across six categories.
The Awards are the fair’s official stand design awards, endorsed by EuroShop, and are sponsored by the International Federation of Exhibition and Event Services (IFES). All exhibitors are automatically eligible for the awards, so it is the tough job of 40 EXHIBITOR representatives to select the initial pool of 40 finalists for judging – from over 2,000 exhibitors covering an area of 127,598m² – after which an international panel of design experts selected the winners.
The People’s Choice Award was the exception to this process, as the winner and honourable mention were decided by online voting.
Travis Stanton, editor of EXHIBITOR magazine, said, “The calibre of these stands was off the charts. Given the global reach of this show, these winners are akin to Olympic medallists in experiential design.”
