International Confex 2027 in London: where to stay near ExCeL

International Confex is the UK's flagship gathering for the meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions sector. For more than four decades it has served as the annual meeting point where event organisers, agencies, brands, associations and venues come together under one roof at ExCeL London. The show floor features 300+ suppliers, destinations, technology providers and hospitality brands, while a packed conference programme delivers over 100 free-to-attend sessions across multiple specialist theatres. Topics span event strategy, sustainability, marketing, recruitment and the latest production innovations. Confex sits alongside The PA Show and the Event Production Show, so a single badge unlocks three co-located exhibitions. It is an essential date for anyone involved in planning, delivering or supplying live experiences.
