The Ukrainian Building Awards 2025, the leading national award in the field of development, architecture, and construction, will be held for the second time on December 18 at the HYATT hotel complex in Kyiv. The award, already dubbed the “Construction Oscars,” aims to identify and recognize companies, architects, and leaders whose decisions and projects are shaping the future of Ukraine.
The Ukrainian Building Awards 2025 is not just an award ceremony, but a symbol of professional recognition, reputation, and success, where each statuette carries the “weight of the year.” The event will bring together the country’s most influential developers, architects, investors, and builders under one roof for a spectacular end to the year and recognition of the leaders.
The event program covers the entire day:
The evening will be hosted by popular presenters Marichka Padalko and Nazarii Volyanskyi. Guests can look forward to a rich entertainment program: Oleksii Kogan’s jazz band will create a lively festive atmosphere, and the band S.K.A.I. will give a full concert lasting over an hour.
The organizers emphasize that this evening will be a joint festive, Christmas, and New Year’s finale for the entire industry, a place where the names of those who are creating a new Ukraine will be announced.
“The 2025 Construction Oscar is the highlight of the year for those who are creating a new Ukraine. Be among the best – your story should be heard from the stage,” the organizers note.
