The international foiling community can propose the athletes, projects, products and events that made an outstanding contribution to the world of foiling in 2026
Closing on 25 November 2026
Thirteen categories, one community, one night in Genoa. The Foiling Awards recognise the athletes, projects, products and events moving the sport forward.
TO THE BEST FOILING SAILORS, PROJECTS, PRODUCTS AND EVENTS
Since 2016, the Foiling Awards have set the benchmark for excellence in foiling, recognising athletes, projects and innovations that are shaping the future of the sport.
Driven by the international Foiling Community, the Awards celebrate impact over results, giving visibility and recognition to those who truly move the sport forward.
The Foiling Awards culminate in Genoa with an invitation-only Prizegiving Show, where all the winners are officially announced. A one-night-only event where high performance meets black-tie glamour, and where the global foiling community comes together to celebrate excellence, ambition and vision.
Attendance is primarily by invitation. Guests wishing to attend may express their interest by contacting the Secretariat at secretary@wearefoiling.com.
Between 23 September 2026 and 25 November 2026, the members of the Foiling Community are invited to suggest athletes, events, projects and products that made a significant impact during 2025.
Submissions are reviewed by the Organising Committee and, once validated, included in the official shortlist and voted from from 15 December 2026 to 15 January 2027.
Following a curated selection and public voting process, the winners will be announced during an exclusive Prizegiving Show Dinner. Further details on the event date will be shared shortly.
