As we wait in anticipation for our WA contestants to join the race, our VIC, SA, NSW, ACT and QLD champions have been decided. From the state award ceremonies held last year, all category winners have been entered into the 2022/2023 Husqvarna Champion of Champions to battle it out for the national crown.
From fun-filled playscapes to sprawling parklands, backyard beauties to poolside paradises, each of our contestants have something special to offer. Entries of both commercial and residential projects across seven major categories will be judged by an elite panel of industry experts from around the nation to determine who will be our crowned champion.
Want to take part? Not to worry, pubic voting will be open soon for you to have your say on who steals the spotlight and gets the crown.
We cannot wait to find out our WA champions who will enter the race next month at their state landscape awards ceremony, check out this year’s run of contestants and their state award-winning projects at landscaperoftheyear.com.au
Helping to bring landscape excellence are this year’s sponsors, Husqvarna, Grillex and DECO Australia. Find out more from our sponsors here.
