Entries for the FESPA Awards 2027 are open to professionals and students in print and signage. The international competition recognises work that brings together production quality, creativity and innovation.

The 2027 edition features 18 categories covering applications in paper and board, plastics, textiles, garments, labels, interior decoration, functional printing and signage. It also includes Young Star, for students and young professionals aged 16 to 25.

To take part, entrants select a category and complete the online application. Work must be supported by a physical sample or, where this is not possible, high-resolution photographs and material that allows its quality and production to be assessed.

The deadline to complete the online application is 2 December 2026. Submitted work must arrive in the UK between 2 December 2026 and 5 January 2027, following the organiser’s shipping instructions.

Selected entries will be displayed at FESPA Global Print Expo in Munich from 6 to 9 April 2027. The Awards ceremony is scheduled for 7 April. APIGRAF invites Portuguese companies, professionals, students and young talent in the sector to review the categories and entry criteria.
