Overview

Join us for an unforgettable evening at the 2026 NSW Regional Architecture Awards – hosted at Yarrila Place in Coffs Harbour!

This year’s Regional Awards mark the relaunch of a program dedicated to recognising and celebrating the outstanding architectural work taking place across NSW. As our regions continue to grow and thrive, so too does the calibre of design work. The awards provide a vital opportunity to acknowledge the profession’s contribution to shaping resilient, sustainable, and culturally rich regional communities.

Bring along your peers, clients, builders, collaborators, family, and friends! We'll toast to industry's collective achievements and celebrate the ongoing commitment of regionally practicing architects to the state's architectural landscape.
 
Where:
Join us in the dynamic and striking setting of Yarrila Place, 2025 winner of Sulman Medal for Public Architecture.
 
Lineup:
The awards evening will be accompanied by a range of supporting events around the Coffs Harbour Region in a memorable weekend celebrating the transformative power of architecture (more info under the "Supporting Events" tab below).
