STIHL GB Launches Competition for Britain’s Biggest Fan

STIHL GB has launched the ‘STIHL 100 Fan Award’ competition as part of its global centenary celebrations. The exclusive Instagram competition, which closes on 26th June, turns the spotlight on the brand’s loyal fans and invites STIHL enthusiasts to compete for the title of ‘STIHL’s biggest fan’, with big prizes to be won. 

How to enter STIHL’s 100 Fan Award competition

To enter, participants must share a photo or video on their Instagram page showcasing their passion for the STIHL brand. Entries must tag @stihlgb and use the hashtag #biggestSTIHLfan to be in with a chance of winning. 

Entries can feature anything from vintage tools, creative projects and restoration works, to tattoos or stories that demonstrate a passion for the world’s best-selling petrol chainsaw brand. 

Once the competition deadline has passed, a panel of judges will review entries based on creativity, skill, and passion, with one winner and five runners-up to be announced in early July. 

STIHL 100 Fan Award competition prizes 

The winner of STIHL GB’s 100 Fan Award will receive a limited centennial edition MS 500i, the brand’s flagship high-performance petrol chainsaw. Runners up will each receive a STIHL merchandise bundle worth at least £100 RRP. 

The winning entry will also progress to a worldwide competition, where three global winners will receive an all expenses paid trip to STIHL’s HQ in Germany, which includes attendance at the 2026 STIHL TIMBERSPORTS® World Championship. 

A century of STIHL 

The 2026 competition is part of a range of initiatives taking place across STIHL’s global network to mark 100years of craftmanship, innovation, and community. Since 1926, STIHL has defined the global standard for battery and petrol-powered forestry, landscaping, and home gardening equipment. 

Built to make work in nature easier, STIHL began as a one-man operation in a Stuttgart workshop. Today, the family-owned company celebrates its centennial by continuing to lead innovation across both petrol and battery-powered technologies.
