Futurebuild is the only UK event dedicated to connecting innovation with specification. We bring together the most influential architects, Tier 1 contractors, local authorities, and government policymakers with forward-thinking suppliers and manufacturers — creating powerful connections that drive real business, real projects, and real progress.
Taking place 3–5 March 2026 at Excel London, the 21st edition of the UK’s most impactful built environment event unites thousands of specifiers, decision-makers, and innovators.
Across three days, you’ll experience groundbreaking innovation, world-class knowledge, and unrivalled networking opportunities from thought-leading conference sessions and CPD-accredited seminars to cutting-edge exhibits and live demonstrations.
Built around this year’s theme, Connect, Futurebuild 2026 celebrates the power of collaboration between people, projects, and technologies to create a built environment that is more resilient, regenerative, and resource-efficient.
Join us to discover breakthrough solutions, meet the partners who can help move your projects forward, and turn sustainability ambition into real-world action.
Every great change begins with a connection, a shared idea, a conversation, a moment of collaboration.
