Exhibition Centre Liverpool has confirmed a varied lineup of events, including multiple multi-year agreements for 2025 and beyond.
In addition to the highly anticipated Comic Con returning, the immersive art experience, Beyond Monet is set to debut its UK tour at the venue this summer, following on from the unprecedented success of Beyond Van Gogh last year.
2025 will also see the debut of the Global Manufacturing Technology Show.
Meanwhile, the Hybrid Games, the first-ever fitness event of this kind in the UK, will challenge participants with a series of demanding physical fitness challenges.
The venue’s spacious indoor and outdoor layout along the world-renowned Liverpool waterfront, make it ideally suited for hybrid formats and physically engaging activations.
Among the standout additions is Flood & Coast, the UK’s leading event for flood risk professionals, which will take place at the venue in both 2026 and 2027.
Attracting more than 2,300 attendees, the event brings together key stakeholders to share, debate and develop innovative solutions for communities vulnerable to flooding and coastal erosion.
Its move to Liverpool signals the city’s increasing prominence as a centre for sustainability-focused dialogue and future resilience planning.
Darren Eckford, director of Learning and Organisational Development for CIWEM, organisers of the Flood and Coast event said: “Taking Flood & Coast to Liverpool is another step in the continued development of the event. Allowing more communities at flood risk to engage directly with flood resilience professionals is a key driver, and the central city location and support of the regional authority make this far more attainable.”
The UK Drum Show has also extended its agreement with the venue through to 2028, while Procurex National will return in 2026.
Furthermore, the SLIDE & OTS Winter Sports Trade Show has secured a multi-year deal, ensuring its continued presence at the venue through 2028. Long-term client UNITAS has also extended its contract with the Exhibition Centre Liverpool through 2028, with planned events for 2027 and 2028.
Colm Graham, exhibition, partnerships & hospitality manager of The ACC Liverpool Group, operator of the campus, said: “Exhibition organisers are excited to be bringing their events to us, from those coming to us for the first time, to events returning over many years and booking well ahead into the future. The variety of our forthcoming programme showcases the vibrancy of our campus and what we can offer, and the repeat bookings demonstrate organiser confidence in our venue’s operational excellence, visitor experience and commercial return.”
With a packed schedule of both returning and new events, Exhibition Centre Liverpool continues to play a central role in the UK’s event landscape, attracting leading organisers, inspiring audiences, and driving innovation well into the future.
