Some contests will be a traditional pre-contest where the entries will be made at home and submitted on arrival. Possibly there will also be quick challenges that will not be published before the event.

The prizes are optional, for example gift cards in your shop, bead packs or something else that connects with beading. The value of the prizes shall be at least 400, 300, 150 and 150 SEK per contest. If you want to sponsor for a bigger value, of course you can! The pre-contests will have a higher value of the prizes: 1000, 700 and 400 SEK. We choose which sponsors can sponsor the contests among those who have declared an interest.

We will have a number of workshops during the weekend where the participants get the chance to learn something new and take interest in new techniques. Here you have a possibility to show what you have in your shop that fits the specific technique and workshop. The sponsors can also hold your own workshop. Write this in your application if you are interested!
