For over 10 years, we’ve kept Best entry fees unchanged - because we know what it takes to submit work, and we’ve always aimed to honour that effort.
This year, with rising delivery costs across the board, we’ve made an adjustment to ensure Best remains viable, inspiring, and of the standard our community expects.
We’ve structured the fees in two phases - rewarding early entries and continuing to offer a lower rate for DINZ Members.
Thank you for standing with us in building a platform that represents the very best of design in Aotearoa.
