We are pleased to announce the entry period as follows.

Australian Sake Awards 2026

Entries will be accepted online through our official website. Please wait until the opening date for submissions.

For 2026, in addition to our regular “Regular Competition” and “Food Matching Competition”, we are pleased to introduce a new “Umeshu Category Competition” in response to strong demand from participants. With this addition, we aim to further strengthen the competition’s role in supporting breweries and sake producers, helping them expand brand recognition and promote sales within the Australian market.

Details regarding each judging category and entry regulations will be announced in mid-December 2025.
We appreciate your patience until the official release.
