Island Design Excellence Award Ceremony

Join us for the Island Design Excellence Awards Ceremony on Wednesday November 4.

This fun evening will shine a spotlight on the creative forces shaping Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands.

Last year's inaugural ceremony wasn't just another industry event — it’s a high-energy celebration where our creative community comes together to honour the products, projects, and people whose excellence is achieved through design.

Raise a glass with us as we toast this year's IDEA finalists and winners!

Tickets are limited — secure yours now and be part of this milestone celebration.

Footwear Tip

The awards ceremony will include lots of standing and mingling at high-top tables. We’re all for stylish party looks, but pair them with shoes that keep you comfortable—chic flats, block heels, or reliable dress shoes—so you can enjoy the night start to finish. A limited number of seats will be available for those who need them.

Important Reminders:

• Free street parking is available nearby
• Self-serve coat check will be available (please avoid bringing valuables)
• The venue is wheelchair accessible
• Please keep phones on silent during the ceremony out of respect for our honorees
• Professional photography will be provided (personal phone photos are welcome!)
• Awards will be issued at the event and can otherwise be collected at the Becoming Deisgn Office (738 Fort Street) after the event
