Throwing it back to two fantastic days at The Meetings Show! 👋

It was a pleasure to reconnect with familiar faces, meet new partners, and showcase everything Royal Armouries Conference & Events and Leeds have to offer as one of Leeds’ largest banqueting and exhibition venues.

UKREiiF 2026 may already be a month behind us, but the energy, excitement and pride continue.

In May, we welcomed more than 16,000 delegates from across the UK and beyond to the fifth edition of UKREiiF, and Royal Armouries Conference & Events was honoured to once again be at the heart of it all as the event's host venue.

UKREiiF's continued presence in Leeds has delivered lasting value not only for us as a venue, but for the city and wider region, generating more than £60 million for the local economy and cementing its place as a cornerstone of Leeds' annual events calendar.

Our city certainly knows how to welcome people. It has the scale, energy, and ambition of a major UK destination, yet remains walkable, accessible, and full of character. When delegates come to UKREiiF, they don't just attend a conference - they experience everything our city has to offer, from its thriving business community to its vibrant hospitality, culture, and leisure offerings.

That's why we're so excited to see UKREiiF return to Royal Armouries, Leeds from 18–20 May 2027. We're proud to be the venue that helps facilitate some of the industry's most important conversations, fosters meaningful connections, and contributes to Leeds' growing reputation as a leading destination for business, investment, and leisure.

Roll on 2027! 🙌
