Entries for the kbbreview Retail & Design Awards 2026 are now OPEN!
It’s the biggest awards in the industry and we’re back for our 32nd year.
All the categories are listed below but if you’re a kitchen and/or bathroom retailer, designer, supplier or installer then we have an award for you.
Included is a brand new category for 2026 – the Unsung Hero award. This honours the people whose dedication, passion and commitment make an extraordinary difference every single day.
It could be a business owner who always goes above and beyond for their team, a designer who quietly transforms clients’ dreams into reality, or a colleague behind the scenes who keeps everything running smoothly. Is it your boss? Your customer? Or maybe it’s you. Whoever it is, we want to hear the story.
You can find out everything you need to know at our official kbbreview Retail & Design Awards 2026 site but the closing date is Thursday, November 13, 2025.
There will be NO extensions so get that date in your diary.
The winners will be announced at our event – which will be as spectacular as ever – and you can also book your tickets at the website too.
It’s on Monday, March 2nd at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole. That’s at the NEC and it’s the Monday night of the kbb Birmingham show.
If you want any help with entries, or to enquire about event seats, tables or sponsorship, contact Andy at [email protected]
