We’re excited to announce that bookings for ALBUM Conference 2026, hosted by Blackpool Transport are now open!
ALBUM looks forward to welcoming you to The Village Hotel in Blackpool between Monday 11th and Wednesday 13th May 2026.
Book before the end of December 2025 to benefit from our early bird offer, allowing you to attend the two-day conference for just £290 for ALBUM members and £330 for non-ALBUM members. Prices from 1st January 2026 will be £320 for ALBUM members and £360 for non-ALBUM members.
A new exciting format will take place, with a Blackpool Extravaganza welcoming people to ALBUM Conference on the Monday evening, followed by two days of debate and opportunities to network with suppliers on Tuesday 12th and Wednesday 13th May.
The theme of the conference will focus on the evolving challenges and opportunities in the bus industry, with key insights on what the medium term future for buses may look like.
The much-anticipated Gala Dinner will take place on the Tuesday evening, allowing attendees to head home earlier after conference finishes on the Wednesday afternoon.
Golfers will be able to participate in the ALBUM Golf Day on Monday 11th May at Heron’s Reach Golf Course.
Costs to attend the networking events such as Golf, Welcome and the Gala Dinner are frozen, recognising the financial pressures the industry is facing.
Opportunities for suppliers to exhibit at ALBUM Conference are also open to book, with 40 stands available. Prices start at just £1000 for ALBUM members and from just £1150 for non-ALBUM members to attend both days.
Sponsorship opportunities are currently available for suppliers who sponsored the 2025 Conference, with full sponsorship sales planned to go live in early December. If you wish to discuss a sponsorship opportunity, contact [email protected]
