Nailympia London returns to ExCel on 12-13 October 2025

We can't wait to return to London in 2025, live from the Salon Beauty show.
Register your interest to be the first to hear about upcoming competitions and categories.

The 20th iteration of Nailympia London took place at the Salon Beauty expo, 13-14 October 2024, and wrapped up a phenomenal year of competitions for the global nail sector.

 

Nailympia was hosted in six locations in 2024, with Germany run by Stefanie Lo Re, Mexico by Dafne Fernandez, Vietnam by Damon Ho, and in association with the Premiere Show Group in Orlando and San Antonio. The London contest featured 10 categories that could be entered online, and nine that took place in the Salon Beauty arena. Across these 19 categories, 165 competitors from 32 countries took 544 competition seats.

Categories were judged by a team of global experts, who each boast exceptional prowess in the nail sector, and Nailympia is administered under Alex Fox, who celebrates 20 years as global director of Nailympia this autumn.
