Since 1998, FLORINT organizes a contest named EUROFLEURS. This contest serves as a comparison in craftsmanship and creativity between young florists with a maximum age of 25, originating from different countries. This competition gives young florists the opportunity to put their first steps on an international platform. As a general rule, the Eurofleurs Cup takes place every 4 years.
Participation:
One young florist of each member country is allowed to take part in the contest. By way of exception, florists from non-member countries may also be accepted, if desired. Applications should then be addressed to the Direction Committee of FLORINT.
The contestants shall be nominated by the national florist associations, members of FLORINT. In countries where there is more then one member association these associations should agree on the contestant or organise a mutual competition. In countries where there is no member organisation of FLORINT the Fleurop-Interflora Unit of the country concerned or another organisation of professional florists may apply for a place. Applications should be addressed to the direction committee of FLORINT.
Next Eurofleurs in 2010:
The next Eurofleurs competition will take place in Great Britain in July 2010 at the RHS Tatton Park Flower Show.
