Registrations are now live for UK Construction Week Birmingham, the national platform for the built environment to connect, collaborate, and shape the future of construction
UK Construction Week (UKCW) Birmingham returns to the NEC from 29th September to 1st October and will feature over 250 leading brands, 200 speakers, and over 150 hours of CPD-accredited seminars across five stages.
Martin Hurn, editorial director of the event, said: “UKCW Birmingham has an important role to play as a national platform for the built environment to connect.
“With so much infrastructure, regeneration and development activity taking place across the Midlands and North, Birmingham is the right place to bring the industry together.”
UKCW Birmingham moves beyond the traditional exhibition format
As the construction sector faces growing challenges around skills, sustainability, productivity and delivery, UKCW Birmingham has been reset to reflect the needs of today’s industry.
Moving beyond the traditional exhibition format, the show is designed to create meaningful opportunities for businesses and professionals to connect and collaborate.
“This year, we want UKCW to be more than an exhibition. It needs to be a meeting place for leadership, ideas, collaboration and practical solutions, helping the sector address the challenges that are shaping construction today and in the years ahead,” Hurn said.
Products, tech and ideas shaping the future built environment
Bringing together construction leaders, decision-makers, and innovators from across the sector, UK Construction Week Birmingham will serve as a central meeting point for the industry, showcasing the latest innovative products, technologies, and ideas driving the future of the built environment.
The Main Stage will explore key issues shaping the built environment, alongside a packed seminar programme across five additional stages providing practical insights into how businesses can respond.
Face-to-face networking remains at the heart of the multi-award-winning show, including insightful industry roundtables and meet-the-buyer sessions in the Build Connect Networking Lounge, with the exhibitor floor bringing it all together as visitors connect directly with suppliers and partners.
New for 2026, the Futurebuild Innovation Showcase will highlight the latest products, ideas and technologies transforming construction.
Extensive opportunities packed across three days
Opened by architect and Channel 4 presenter George Clarke, the show will once again feature an extensive programme of seminars, workshops, live demonstrations and networking opportunities across three packed days.
Five theatres offering a varied programme of talks and workshops from industry experts and thought leaders:
- Main Stage
- Building and Occupational Safety Stage
- Building Envelope Stage
- Digitalisation & AI Stage
- Futurebuild Innovation Stage
UK Construction Week Birmingham will build on the success of its sister show, UK Construction Week London, where feedback was hugely positive from visitors and exhibitors.
