29 September – 01 October
NEC, Birmingham
Registrations are now live for UK Construction Week (UKCW) Birmingham, the national platform for the built environment to connect, collaborate and shape the future of construction.
Sponsored by Wyre, HotelPlanner, SolarEdge and Build Warranty, UKCW Birmingham returns to the NEC from 29 September to 1 October and will feature over 250 leading brands; 200 speakers and over
150 hours of CPD accredited seminars across five stages.
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.
UKCW Birmingham’s editorial director, Martin Hurn, commented: “UKCW Birmingham has an important role to play as a national platform for the built environment to connect.
“Its location at the centre of the UK matters. 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.
“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.”
Bringing together construction leaders, decision makers, and innovators from across the sector, UKCW 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.
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.
