After receiving nearly 300 entries, the judging panel for AHEAD Europe 2023 has announced their shortlist.
The 42-project strong shortlist showcases some of the region’s most compelling new hospitality projects, from a converted 19th-century fort on on the Montenegrin islet of Mamula to a striking sustainable skyscraper nestled in London’s leafy Mayfair.
The winners will be revealed in a ceremony at Evolution London on 17 November 2023, where this year’s theme celebrates la dolce vita – tickets are available to purchase here subject to availability.
