The Festival of Hospitality was created to be different.
Our events are intimate, innovative, and inclusive experiences that are truly fun. We bring together pioneers from diverse backgrounds, encouraging open dialogue and insights into the hospitality industry's future.
In 2025, the Festival offers a full-year’s programme of events and tours in London for you to experience.
UPCOMING EVENT
To Brand or Not to Brand?
We’re bringing together investors, developers, lenders and operators to explore how brand choices influence the entire project lifecycle - from feasibility and funding through to construction, operations and long-term performance.
Plus an exclusive fireside chat with Jeremy Cooper, CIO at Sydell Group.
PAY IT FORWARD
We want the Festival to have a wider impact. To open the Festival up to disadvantaged groups, to career returners and to the unemployed. We want to enable them to find varied pathways into the hospitality sector.
Bringing more organisations on board will help us in widening our reach, so if you’re interested in partnering with us on this initiative, we’d love to hear from you.
TESTIMONIALS
“The Festival brings together the industry’s brightest minds to discuss topics that are top of the hospitality agenda, whilst also offering guided tours showcasing the hottest hotel openings - an event not to be missed!”
Maurice Petignat - CEDAR CAPITAL PARTNERS
“The Festival of Hospitality answers a need I’m not sure many hospitality people were aware they had – filling a gap between trade fair and investment conference.
The capacity of this format for learning and growth is significant, and it fosters a genuine sense of community in the industry.”
Nick de Klerk - PURCELL
“Thank you for the fantastic events!
I’ve attended 5-6 and gained valuable insights that I can actively apply to my business... alongside going on some great tours and meeting some great people.”
James Fry - BEYOND APARTHOTELS
