Any business or individual working within the flooring industry can submit a nomination, provided they meet the criteria for the specific category. This includes retailers, installers, manufacturers, suppliers, and industry professionals.
All nominations are reviewed by an independent panel of judges from across the flooring industry. Each entry is assessed against the criteria for its category and scored individually. The highest-scoring nominations are shortlisted as finalists.
Submitting a nomination for the National Flooring Awards is free. However, finalists and guests may choose to purchase tickets to attend the awards ceremony.
No. Each business may only submit one nomination. This helps ensure a fair judging process and encourages entrants to choose the category that best represents their strengths, achievements, or area of expertise within the flooring industry.
Due to high demand and to ensure as many businesses as possible can attend, each business can purchase up to 3 tickets.
If you would like additional tickets, you can request them and will be placed on a waiting list. Any extra availability will be allocated where possible.
No need for tuxedos or gowns unless you want to. Think celebration, party wear, not corporate.
No, Harrogate has a plethora of hotels, B&Bs and other accommodation to choose from. Be aware, this is the night before The Flooring Show starts, so will be very busy.
