FITUR 2025 Sustainable Stand Award Rules
FITUR, in collaboration with the Responsible Tourism Institute - ITR - announces the FITUR 2025 sustainable stand award. This award recognises the most sustainable practices when participating as an exhibitor at the event.
Sustainability in its three aspects (economic, social and environmental) will be taken into account and the entire life cycle of the fair, from its preparation to its conclusion and closure, will be incorporated.
With this, FITUR reaffirms its commitment to making the trade fair and conference industry a benchmark in this discipline, promoting the outreach and knowledge of best practices applicable to all types of events.
Participants:
Entry is open to all companies with a stand at FITUR, i.e. direct exhibitors at the fair.
How to enter:
Direct exhibitors at FITUR who wish to participate in this call for entries must complete and submit the questionnaire published HERE and, if deemed necessary by the Organisers, attend a verification visit during the fair.
All sections of the questionnaire should be completed, including the relevant descriptions when citing best practices. Otherwise, the corresponding section will not be assessed.
The deadline for submitting the questionnaire is 23 January 2025 at 7pm (end of the second day of the fair).
Jury:
The jury will be composed of industry representatives and sustainability specialists.
On behalf of IFEMA MADRID, the FITUR Management and the Quality and Sustainability Department will also form part of the jury.
The composition of the jury will be made public when the prize is awarded.
Selection of the winner:
The Jury will assess the information provided through the form, as well as the impact of the actions, their degree of innovation and the effort in their implementation.

Prizes will be awarded for the number of ex aequo nominations that the Jury deems appropriate, and the prize may also be declared null and void.
Awards:
The prize consists of a diploma and a trophy, which will be awarded after the announcement of the decision, at an event whose date will be notified to the winner sufficiently in advance.
