ABPCO Festival of Learning 2025
April 28 - April 29

The Festival of Learning is ABPCO’s educational flagship event providing a key moment for the association events community to come together to network, share and most importantly to learn.
Now in its fourth year, the festival will be taking place in person on Tuesday 29 April 2025 at the Eastside Rooms in Birmingham. As well as a full day of learning, the event includes a networking supper and the new event innovation hub the evening prior (see the schedule page for more details). We’re expecting over 150 event professionals and will be exploring the theme – Connect, Collaborate and Challenge.

The event industry’s reliance on data to help it plan for the future, increase its resilience, manage risk and justify investment decisions, is growing year on year.
The engagement and access that The Power of Events (UK) has across all 7 sectors of the industry, enables data gathering and in-depth research projects to be delivered confidently and consistently. This will be primarily facilitated through the new insight app to be launched on 28th Sep 2023.
By bringing the industry and university partners together, research projects will be designed to deliver real benefits to the industry in terms of trend analysis, insights and performance improvements.
