Festival of Hospitality
Curated by Always Thinking, the Festival of Hospitality is a year-long programme of events bringing together designers, developers, investors, operators and consultants to explore and shape the future of hospitality. Through its Pay it Forward initiative, the Festival is committed to widening access to the industry by creating opportunities for young people, career returners and underrepresented groups.
For 2025, we’ve extended the format of the Festival to run over 12 months. We have behind-the-scenes hotel tours, social events, roundtables, networking and talks, and we’ll be tackling some of the big topics facing the industry today. While having a fun time doing it!
“The Festival of Hospitality always manages to bring together a great mix of people from every corner of our industry and that creates a real buzz – something that is missing in other environments.”
