why attend?

 

 

get inspired and informed
Our events attract creative and influential developers, policymakers and designers from the public and private sector to connect and learn. We invite fresh voices to present the latest research and case studies on doing property differently to benefit people and planet.

 

make new connections
Network and build professional relationships in a relaxed environment where it’s safe to ask questions. Our dynamic programme encourages serendipity in the spaces between the sessions, while workshops and walking tours facilitate new connections, ideal for meeting future collaborators, team members and partners.

 

align your values
Hone your strategy and align your approach with the goals and values of key figures in policy, development and planning. The Festival of Place is an amazing opportunity to test your values and bring your team into strategic alignment.
