Highways UK returns to the NEC Birmingham on 14-15 October 2026, bringing together the people responsible for planning, developing, managing, maintaining, and future-proofing the nation's roads networks. As the UK's leading event for the roads and transport sector, it connects the entire highways supply chain under one roof.

Through a major exhibition featuring over 360 exhibitors, a high-level conference across 8 theatres, and extensive networking, Highways UK is where the industry comes together to do business and shape the future of roads. It is the must-attend event for National Highways, local authorities, contractors, consultants, technology providers, and policymakers, all working to deliver a safer, smarter, and more sustainable roads network. The event is co-located with Asphalt World UK. Registration opens at 8:30 daily. The exhibition and conference are free to attend.
