About the Competition
Floral Windows to the World has always been a key highlight of SGF since the first edition held in 2006, showcasing colourful and creatively cut flower displays.
At SGF 2024, Floral Windows to the World will adopt a fresh and different concept and will be renamed Floral Windows to the World Championship.
Audience members can look forward to a live competition element during the first three days of the Festival from 3 to 5 August 2024 when designers will execute a series of six tasks live in front of judges and visitors to create their masterpieces, with the aim of becoming the Grand Champion.
A total of 18 shortlisted floral designers, hailing from 18 countries across five continents, will compete in the Championship.
The Championship is divided into three parts: Heats (18 competitors), Semi-Final (10 competitors) and the Grand Final (five competitors). The top five finalists will compete at a ticketed dinner event* where the Grand Champion will be crowned.
* Note: A ticket to the Championship finals dinner is required to attend and watch the Grand Final. Tickets for SGF 2024 and the Championship finals dinner can be purchased here while more information on the Championship finals dinner can be found here
