Join hundreds of organisations hosting dynamic events, seminars, and debates at the heat of Labour Party Annual Conference
Fringe at Annual Conference
The ‘fringe’ is the term used for the many individual events that take place around the main conference. Hundreds of organisations host a range of events including seminars, debates, workshops and receptions across the conference site and the host city.
It’s a great opportunity for organisations to reach a wide audience. Annual Conference delegates, commercial visitors, MPs and other key decision makers make for lively and dynamic discussion on a huge range of topics.
The information below is a step-by-step guide to hosting a fringe event with us. It covers everything from submitting your fringe event request to delivering your event on-site, with all the key information you'll need along the way.
Book your fringe event
Organising a fringe event is very simple. Once you have an idea of the style of event, target audience and logistical details – such as preferred day and time – you can submit an online request form using the button below.
Space in the Conference Zone is always in high demand so we recommend you submit your fringe requests as soon as possible. We are also able to offer fringe space outside the main Conference Zone in nearby hotels and venues such as the Hilton Hotel.
Take advantage of a full fringe package, including:
- add Maximum impact by being present within the conference site
- add Complimentary passes to Conference
- add AV on-site support service
- add Conference Team to provide advice and support every step of the way
- add Priority advertising slots
Information for Event Organisers
As part of a fringe event package you are entitled to two full week complex event holder passes for each event you are holding.
The deadline to apply for complimentary passes is 17 July 2026.

Fringe Listing Formats
A fringe listing is a pre-formatted piece of text providing Conference delegates with essential information about your fringe event. Listings can be hosted in the Conference Guide, on the Conference app, or both. While external event organisers (those not booked via the Labour Party Conference Team) can still submit a listing, event holders booking fringe events directly through the Labour Party are entitled to a discounted fringe listing.
Please be aware the deadline for listing submissions to be included in the printed Conference guide is 17:00 Friday 17 July 2026.
