All winners are eligible for the RIBA Lubetkin Prize awarded to the best international building by an RIBA member the presentation. The winner of the RIBA Lubetkin prize will be announced on Saturday 1 October at Magna Science and Adventure Centre in Rotherham and broadcast along with the RIBA Stirling Prize as a special edition of BBC TWO’s The Culture Show.
