Ignite your passion for places.

Join us in London for another year of sparking great ideas for vibrant places. From the talks to the learning; the walks to the networking, this one-day conference brings together 600 professionals working in the place-led regeneration, development, design, investment, policy, planning and stewardship of UK towns and cities. Drawn from across the public and private sector, what we share is a commitment to making an equitable positive social and environmental impact. 

Festival of Place 2026 is on 10 June at Boxpark Wembley, London.
Fantastic atmosphere, refreshments and networking all day.
