Eurofleurs 2023 – the results

by

The Eurofleurs 2023 competition took place at the stunning Arboretum Volčji Potok park near the capital Ljubljana. 

Our UK competitor Catey Burn from Old Oak Floral Designers in Ascot was placed 4th, only 11 points away from 1st place. 12 countries competed in total and to earn a place in the competition means that you are amogst the best young floral designs in the world.

The Results

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.
