EDUCATION. PROCUREMENT. COMMUNITY

After a hugely successful launch in 2025, we’re excited to announce the return of The Blue Light Show — the UK’s only cross-service event dedicated to the emergency services — taking place once again at the iconic Olympia London.

This unmissable second edition will take place on 1–2 July 2026, building on everything that made the inaugural event such a success: a sector-leading procurement exhibition, a high-level CPD-accredited conference programme, and a platform to connect, collaborate and innovate across police, fire, ambulance, rescue and voluntary services.

Developed in close collaboration with senior leaders and frontline professionals, The Blue Light Show was created to meet the real-world needs of those shaping and delivering emergency response.

London Olympia

Now, in 2026, we’re taking it even further.

With thousands of senior decision-makers, specifiers, and procurement professionals in attendance, this is your opportunity to put your products, services, and solutions directly in front of the audience that matters most.

This is not just another event. It's a high-impact environment designed to give you time, visibility, and meaningful conversations with the UK’s emergency services. Whether you're driving innovation in technology, training, equipment, comms, fleet or wellbeing — this is where the sector will be.

Don’t miss your chance to be part of the 2026 edition.
