You’ve probably heard: BIG Night – the BIA’s annual awards gala – is returning on April 17, 2026 to the Exchange at Bridgepark, and we want to see every corner of Central Ohio’s building industry represented on the stage.

Whether you’re a boutique builder, a large-volume developer, a designer, a marketer, an associate company, or an emerging leader, BIG Night has a category designed to celebrate the work you do. And yes: That means you should enter.

BIG Night Is for Everyone

For years, BIG Night has recognized homebuilding excellence. But excellence isn’t defined by company size. It’s defined by craftsmanship, innovation, leadership, creativity, and community impact.

This year’s award categories were intentionally designed to include companies and professionals across the industry:

BIG Night Award Categories

  • Professional Achievement Awards
  • Volume-Based Awards
  • Marketing & Advertising
  • Design Awards
  • Community Impact Awards

Whether you built five homes or 500…
Designed a standout remodel…
Launched a creative marketing campaign…
Or went above and beyond in your community…

There is a place for your work at BIG Night.
