AILA Chapter Awards 2026: Seven Cities, Seven Nights

Posted August 2026

Join us for the biggest celebrations on Australia’s built environment calendar.

This year, Street Furniture Australia is proud to step up as the Presenting Partner of the 2026 Australian Institute of Landscape Architects (AILA) Chapter Awards, deepening our long-standing relationship with AILA and celebrating with the broader landscape architecture community.

Held across seven cities and seven nights, the 2026 Chapter Awards will bring together more than 1,000 landscape architects to celebrate the diverse work shaping Australia’s civic spaces, making it a stand out event for anyone interested in the future of public space.

With more than 250 submissions received from across the country, judging is now underway, and tickets are officially on sale for each state’s Chapter Awards.

A new chapter in our AILA partnership

Supporting the AILA team has been a genuine highlight of our year. Over the past three months, we have worked closely with AILA Board Director Naomi Barun to help bring this year’s Chapter Awards to life, contributing to AILA’s role in championing the profession and connecting landscape architects across Australia.

“The calibre of this year’s award entries reflects the depth of thinking, creativity and commitment across the landscape architecture profession. AILA is fortunate to have such a passionate and talented member community, and we’re excited to celebrate the projects and people raising the standard of landscape architecture across Australia.

We’re also incredibly grateful to Street Furniture Australia. Their support as Presenting Partner has helped make this year’s AILA Awards program possible, and their ongoing commitment to quality public spaces and the profession is deeply valued.”

Naomi Barun, AILA Board Director. 

“When AILA invited us to support this year’s Awards, we were delighted to be involved. Landscape architects play an essential role in creating places where communities can thrive and have long been valued clients, collaborators and partners of Street Furniture Australia. After 11 years as an AILA National Partner, we remain as committed as ever, with an exciting new chapter in the partnership to be announced soon.”

June Lee Boxsell, Director of Strategy and Innovation, Street Furniture Australia
