bigger and better than ever.

1-featuredimage


After a record-breaking show in 2025, Utility Week Live will return to the NEC, Birmingham on 19-20 May 2026 with a new content programme with innovation front and centre, a host of new and much-loved returning features, and a range of opportunities for supply chain partners to show their support as utilities are asked to step up and deliver new infrastructure at a scale not seen since the Victorian era. 

A new central innovation stage brings together learnings from innovation projects across energy and water, cutting-edge R&D, and academia to tackle the most pressing challenges facing utilities today, as well as a new Infrastructure Delivery Stage exploring practical solutions to deliver infrastructure rollout at pace. 

The halls (17/18, NEC) will be buzzing with more than 4,000 utilities professionals with buying power. See the potential clients you could meet here.
