Boasting over 8,000 attendees, 70 speakers and 30 sessions, AVA London is one of the city’s finest festival-conference hybrids. The multi-venue event switches from spring to autumn for 2026.

London’s cultural calendar just shifted. AVA London will return on 24–26 September 2026, marking a decisive move into autumn and setting the stage for its most ambitious edition yet. Across three days and nights, AVA London will take over leading cultural institutions — including The British Library and more to come — with a programme of keynotes, live performances, masterclasses, installations and future-facing ideas. The 2026 edition will host 70+ speakers, 30+ sessions and over 8,000 attendees across all events. The AVA London programme is built to offer broad access to world-class performances, conversations and connections at exceptional value. A Pro Pass opens up the full three-day and three-night schedule — every keynote, every masterclass, every headline AV show, every installation and every club event — at a fraction of the cost of comparable industry conferences. With Super Early Bird passes from £126, attendees gain full access to global thought-leadership, cutting-edge artists, game-changing ideas and London’s most forward-thinking cultural spaces. A donation of £1 is included in all ticket prices, which is directed to our charity partner, EarthPercent, to help address the climate and nature crises in a meaningful way.
