The BLT Built Design Awards have officially announced the date and location for their annual awards ceremony and gala dinner. Set to take place on Friday, November 21st, 2025, the event will be hosted at Elisabethenkirche in Basel, Switzerland, a striking example of adaptive reuse architecture and one of the city’s most iconic cultural venues.
Organized by 3C Awards, the ceremony will celebrate the achievements of 2024 and 2025 BLT Awards winners across four key disciplines: Architecture, Interior Design, Landscape Design, and Construction.
This year’s venue, a 19th-century neo-Gothic church reimagined as a contemporary event space, mirrors the core values of the BLT Awards, honoring tradition through innovation. The setting also aligns with one of the most relevant conversations in the field today: adaptive and reuse architecture.
The evening will include formal trophy presentations, a seated gala dinner, and a showcase of the winning projects. Attendees will have the opportunity to network with fellow laureates, jury members, media representatives, and the organizing team. All winners attending the event will be invited on stage to receive their certificates and will have their projects featured throughout the evening.
Each winning firm will receive two complimentary tickets to attend the ceremony. The reservation platform is scheduled to open in August, with additional details to follow.
With a global community of designers expected to gather in Basel, the 2025 BLT Built Design Awards Ceremony promises to be both a celebration of excellence and a platform for dialogue around the future of the built environment.
