The Annual Hospitality Conference 2026

The AHC (Annual Hospitality Conference) is recognised as the UK’s leading event for hospitality dealmakers and decision-makers, focusing on investment, asset management, and operations across the sector.

Returning to the Manchester Central Convention Complex on 14-15 September 2026, this event provides a crucial platform for attendees to gain expert insights, forge valuable connections, and uncover strategies to maximise ROI in the evolving UK hospitality landscape.

The 2026 theme, “All In: Mastering Risk for Reward,” reflects a market where success is no longer about avoiding risk but acting on it with confidence – exploring smarter decision-making across regeneration, asset management, concept innovation, and AI & tech transformation. Through high-impact content, curated networking sessions (including the new Meeting of Minds format and Power Hour matchmaking), and an exhibition floor showcasing 60+ leading suppliers, The AHC is an essential gathering for those looking to stay at the forefront of hospitality investment and operational excellence in the UK.
