Why Attend

CONTENT TO HELP YOU INNOVATE AND TRANSFORM

LIVE is the event where colleagues, competitors and changemakers meet in a space that sparks conversation and builds networks.

Retail’s ability to thrive, hinges on innovation and transformation. Retail Week and The Grocer have the knowledge, experience and contacts to curate the most critical trends and bring you speakers and content that matter live on stage.

Watch panels and presentations from the biggest names in the sector debating the big challenges. Meet new faces and make connections in a friendly networking environment and discover solutions that will benefit your career, your business and the industry.

Attending LIVE will leave you feeling inspired, informed and equipped for the future of retail.

STELLAR SPEAKERS

Every year, LIVE attracts the biggest leaders in UK retail to speak on stage, such as Allan Leighton, Executive Chair of Asda, Sarah Boyd, UK Managing Director of Sephora and Rami Baitiéh, CEO of Morrisons in 2026. Every year these keynotes are joined by the most forward-thinking names in retail and grocery, from the disruptors to the most powerful brands in the industry.

LIVE IS NOT AN EXPO

This is a content-driven event steered by the leading voices for retail in the UK. Retail Week and The Grocer are not experts in exhibitions but where we do excel is bringing the most vital information to retailers and building lasting relationships. We create thought leadership that delivers memorable experiences that help retail professionals build organic and meaningful connections.

DELIVERING CHANGE

We are the retail gathering where collective change happens. Ideas are formed, solutions debated and thinking challenged. We offer the very best environment to inspire new thinking and generate game-changing industry partnerships. That is why it is the only UK retail event that you need.
