Plans have been unveiled for the Pro Landscaper International Awards 2026, which will recognise the very best landscaping projects from around the world. 

Previously known as the FutureScape Global Awards – which took place earlier this year – the Pro Landscaper International Awards will be launching a series of heats across the continents to determine the 2026 finalists to compete at the final next June. 

The leading landscaping, garden design and landscape architecture firms will have the opportunity to enter their projects into five categories: Residential Project Under $500k, Residential Project Over $500k, City Landscape, Conceptual Project and Commercial Project.  

“We’re thrilled to be launching the Pro Landscaper International Awards and bringing together the global landscaping community. The projects showcased at FutureScape Global earlier this year were incredible and of the highest standard, and we’re excited to see those nominated for each of the heats,” says content director Nina Mason.

Entries will soon be opening for the Europe Heat, taking place at this year’s FutureScape from 7-8 October at the ExCeL, London. The second heat for the Middle East and India will be held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in November.  

Following this, projects from North and South America will be able to compete at the inaugural FutureScape USA, launching at the Los Angeles Convention Center on 9-10 December. Heats for Asia & Australasia and Africa will be held virtually in February next year. 

The winners of the regional heats will go head-to-head at the final, which will take place at FutureScape Global in Riyadh in June 2026.  

They will have the opportunity to present their projects in front of an international panel of judges, competing for four awards each based on the pillars of Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030: Economic Diversification, Quality of Life, Community Engagement and Sustainable Development.
