World FM Day 2026

May 13, 2026

Once a year, the global Facilities Management community comes together on World FM Day to celebrate the profession and its achievements. It’s an opportunity to celebrate the successes of FM professionals, showcase the valuable work they do within their organizations, for their clients, and across wider stakeholder groups, and recognize their efforts, outcomes, and impact. World FM Day also serves as a platform to highlight the essential contributions of FM that drive excellence across the built environment.

Dear FM community,

On May 13^th this year, we celebrate the Facility Management profession, a field that continues to evolve, lead, and shape our built environment with strength and innovation. Join us on World FM Day as we come together to honor the achievements of our industry and the professionals who drive it forward.

This year’s theme “FM: Cultivating Belonging Through Built Environments” highlights how Facility Management plays a vital role in creating workplaces and built environments that foster belonging, respect, and inclusion for all communities.

I invite associations, organizations, and industry partners worldwide to join Global FM in marking this important occasion. Let us come together to share impactful stories, recognize outstanding teams, and celebrate the individuals whose work creates environments where people feel connected, valued, and supported.

Together, we can amplify the value of Facility Management and honor the dedicated professionals who shape inclusive, resilient, and thriving built environments, today and every day.
