International Confex 2027 in London
International Confex runs on 3 and 4 March 2027 at ExCeL London.
What it is
The organiser calls it the meeting place for everyone who designs, delivers or dreams up events. Visitors come from global brands, agencies, event organisers, associations and not-for-profits, and the exhibition floor brings together suppliers, venues and event-tech companies. The show is run by Mash Media.
Alongside the exhibition, a free conference programme runs across nine content theatres. The organiser says the 2027 programme, launching in November 2026, covers themes including leadership, recruitment, event strategy and event innovation. A show app is used to make connections with other attendees.
