PLEASE NOTE

  • Priority is given to destinations that aren’t ordinarily accessible to the public
  • If your destination is ordinarily accessible to the public (eg hospitality venue, showroom, display suite, foyer space, civic spaces, etc) a special activity, such as a panel discussion, must be implemented for OHP guests to qualify for consideration
  • OHP is not a sales event so on-market destinations are not permitted during advertised regular home open times.

Destinations are reviewed by a panel of industry experts from various fields to ensure quality and equality across all submissions.
