Nailympia & Premiere strengthen partnership for 2023 with 4 USA locations

 Nailympia Competitions, the globally renowned competition organisation for nail professionals, is expanding into three further locations for 2023, owing to a strengthened partnership with Informa Markets.

The success of the Nailympia Orlando 2019 and 2022 editions will see Nailympia Competitions at beauty exhibitions in the following locations, in line with the Premiere group’s growth across the USA:

Nailympia Anaheim 2-3 April

Nailympia Orlando 4-5 June

Nailympia San Antonio 1-2 October

Nailympia Columbus 8-9 October

 

This expansion comes at an exciting time, since Informa Markets announced earlier this year that it has partnered with the BolognaFiere Group and the Professional Beauty Association to deliver a landmark joint venture, promising an impressive series of beauty events in the US beauty market.

Nailympia Competitions will be hosted in seven locations for 2023; London, UK; Mexico City, Mexico; Düsseldorf, Germany, and Anaheim CA, Orlando FL, San Antonio TX and Columbus OH in the USA, in partnership with the world’s leading nail magazine, Scratch.

Each competition location will offer six live competitions on the show floor:

UV/LED Gel Tip & Overlay, L&P Acrylic Sculpture (with Perfect Match), The Joy of Nails, Stiletto Nails, Salon Nails & Reality Nails.

There will be four turn-in categories, comprising Flat Art, Runway Nails, Invent A Nail Shape and Extreme Nails Styling poster. All turn-in categories will have a theme that will be announced before each event and Reality Nails will be themed on the floor during the competition brief.

“The international Online competition Nailympia Live is a way to save the beauty industry in the current global pandemic,” cites organiser Viktoria Prihodko. “The global nail service market is adapting and the last six months have been a severe test for the entire beauty industry. The beauty industry is one of the most affected industries due to the restrictions imposed. However, the instant speed of reaction and adaptation to the changed conditions on the part of the organisers (UK & Estonia) and companies associated with the beauty industry, gives hope that the competition will be saved and supported.
“One of these ways is to convert all possible competitive activities into a LIVE format. This format of competitions, of course, is much inferior to traditional competitions at real venues, but right now there is simply no better viable alternative. I’m glad that Nailympia is one of the competitions that the first to adapt.  Nailympia Live is one of the first virtual competitions organised in Finland. Virtual competitions, organised as close as possible to real conditions, and from the point of view of the objectivity of the results, are not inferior to real time, since the master is always under video surveillance, which is being recorded. We also have a great opportunity to review the best results by the chief judge again, which makes it possible to put a fair assessment of the best result.

“The performance of all contestants is recorded at their own workplace, or at a rented site for this, but video and photos of the work performed will be sent through the application recorded in Live mode in one attempt. This technical feature gives the most honest and objective result. The organiser of these competitions strives to make the results of the competition transparent, all participants will receive instant evaluations of their work. By assigning teams and a fixed performance time, judges will see their professionalism and how they were able to cope with emotions during the competition.”
