The CEA has announced the launch of the CEA Awards 2027, a new awards programme celebrating achievement across the construction equipment sector.

The inaugural awards will take place on the evening of Wednesday 23 June 2027 at the NEC, Birmingham, during the second day of PlantWorx 2027. Hosted in the venue’s Britannia Suite, the CEA Awards will build on the Plantworx Innovation Awards, while broadening the opportunity to recognise excellence across the industry.

The new awards will continue to be held in association with PlantWorx, creating an opportunity for exhibitors, CEA members and the wider construction equipment community to come together for an evening dedicated to celebrating the people, businesses, products and achievements helping to move the sector forward.

“The Plantworx Innovation Awards have given us a fantastic platform to recognise new products, ideas and technologies, but there is so much more happening across our industry that deserves recognition," explained CEA CEO Viki Bell.

“Holding the awards during PlantWorx makes complete sense. Much of the industry will already be together in Birmingham, and the National Conference Centre gives us a venue where we can create a really special evening in its own right."

The move marks a new chapter for the CEA’s awards programme, while retaining its connection with PlantWorx. Further details covering award categories, entry criteria, judging, sponsorship opportunities and tickets will be announced over the coming months.
