EuBEA doesn’t mean ‘big’ but ‘best’ event award
For the European Best Event Awards, the essence of an event is not the budget but the quality of it.EuBEA puts together the best events carried out in Europe, which are also those published in the European Events Annual, and creativity is still one of the most relevant aspects considered by the jury, something that per se can determine the winner.
The demonstration of this is Surprise catwalk, last year’s winner event, organized by Fieldwork (Norway) for Fretex – The Salvation Army, which was a low budget event, realized with less than 50,000 Euros.

The EuBEA jury panel, which is composed by the most important professionals of the Event Industry throughout Europe, evaluates the nominees by different criteria such as creativity, setting, production, direction, awareness, sustainability and more. In this way, the Best Event can be the most interesting or the most innovative, or, again, the most creative and so on, even if it’s not the most expensive, as EuBEA is an Award based on quality.
