BAPCO 2027 in Liverpool — where to stay by the waterfront

BAPCO Annual Event is the UK's flagship gathering for public safety communications and the technology that keeps emergency services connected. The 2027 edition lands at Liverpool Experience Campus on 23 and 24 March 2027, with Tuesday running 09:00–17:30 and Wednesday 09:00–16:00. The programme is built by emergency services, for emergency services. Expect police, fire and ambulance professionals, control room teams, first responders, government stakeholders and technology vendors from across critical communications. On the show floor, established TETRA providers sit alongside suppliers demonstrating LTE, 4G/5G broadband, ESN-aligned services, smart people and asset management, RFID and real-time systems. Across the two days you'll find CPD-accredited sessions in Theatre A (People, Keynote & Strategy), Theatre B (Technology, Practical, Hands-on, Showcase) and The Huddle (Process, Interactive Discussions), plus roundtables, Tech Tours, an exhibitor list spanning the supply chain and the Annual Dinner. Register early — Liverpool hotels fill fast whenever public safety gathers on the waterfront. Searching for somewhere to stay? Kings Dock sits on the Liverpool Waterfront beside ACC Liverpool, the M&S Bank Arena and Liverpool ONE, with a dense cluster of hotels within walking distance.
