LIGHTING AWARD 2026

Showcase what your company can do:


The LICHTPREIS 2026 honors your projects

Grand awards ceremony at the GET NORD 

Modern lighting technology can do far more than just illuminate spaces. It creates atmosphere, boosts efficiency, and combines aesthetics with responsibility. It is precisely these outstanding lighting solutions that the LICHTPREIS puts in the spotlight. 

The prestigious award has been presented every two years since 2014 as part of the GET NORD trade fair in Hamburg and offers electrical contractors the ideal opportunity to showcase their expertise, innovative strength, and project quality.

Put Your Lighting Solution in the Spotlight 

Electrical contractors from Northern Germany have the chance to submit their exceptional indoor and outdoor lighting projects and present themselves to a professional audience, the press, and the industry. The evaluation focuses not only on the craftsmanship of the installation. Lighting technical requirements, energy efficiency, design quality, and professional project management are also decisive factors. 

Awards will be presented in the following categories: 

  • Sustainability
  • Decorative Lighting
  • Technical Lighting
  • Special Award

The awards ceremony will take place on November 19, 2026, as part of an exclusive industry gathering at GET NORD—attended by the trade press and sponsored by the North German Electrical Trades Association from Hamburg, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Lower Saxony, and Schleswig-Holstein.
