Eurofleurs

Florint organises the European Championship for Young Florists, called Eurofleurs, ever since 1998. The competition helps to stimulate the professionalism of young floral designers, and puts a spotlight on some of the world’s greatest talents!

The Eurofleurs competition can be seen as the younger brother of Florint’s famous Europa Cup, in which the competitors are senior florists with lots of experience. Eurofleurs, by contrast, provides skilled young floral artists with the opportunity to take their first steps on an international stage.

Why a competition for young florists?

The competition often launches the careers of the young florists that participate in it. Many of them go on to become celebrated designers in their own regions. Some even end up doing floristry demonstrations all over the world, inspiring many other young people to take up floral design.

Organisation & participation

One of Florint’s member associations organises every edition of Eurofleurs. Florint provides support, in the form of competition blueprints; a professional judging system with certified judges, and lots of publicity. We also supervise the championship, in the background.

As a general rule, the European Championship for Young Florists is open to florists under 26 years of age (during EUROFLEURS 2023, the regulated age limit will be under 27 instead. This is because the championship was postponed for one year).

The florist associations that are members of Florint nominate the competitors in the championship, just as with FLORINT’s Europa Cup. Eurofleurs takes place every 4 years, on average.
