Our Take
2026–27 Irish edition; separate from preserved2025–26 record. Eligibility is assessed on31December2027, not the day of entry. One to three Creators; registered model belongs to the team; each Creator enters one design. Primarily recycled/repurposed/recovered/discarded materials, original work, safe to wear and perform, and transportable. Educator school verification precedes student Creator status; online portal only. Educator registration opened14September2026. No new-edition deadline or Irish final dates publicly confirmed on the checked pages; consult the authenticated portal. Do not substitute the February2027 World Final for this new season’s Irish final dates. Teams pay travel, passports, visas and insurance for the World Final; organiser supplies accommodation, some subsistence and official local transport while in the host city.
