As we look ahead to 2026, the year feels genuinely promising for Hospitality Net and for the wider hospitality community. Our industry continues to move forward through conversation, collaboration, and the kind of face-to-face connection that turns ideas into initiatives. Events remain the moments where perspectives sharpen, partnerships form, and new solutions move from concept to operational reality. With that spirit in mind, we are pleased to introduce the 2026 Hospitality Net Industry Calendar, a curated guide to the year’s most relevant gatherings across the global hospitality landscape.

For Hospitality Net, 2026 also marks an exciting new chapter. In January, we will launch an all new version of our website, designed to make it easier to discover content, follow the topics that matter most to you, and connect with the people and companies shaping our industry. Alongside that relaunch, we will be running a year-long campaign exploring AI and its impact on hospitality. This will be a co-created effort with many of our industry friends and partners, bringing together a wide range of viewpoints and practical experiences. AI is moving quickly from experimentation to real world application, and we want to help the industry navigate what is changing, what is improving, and what still requires careful thinking.

The 2026 calendar reflects the breadth of our sector and the diversity of the conversations happening within it. It features major global and regional conferences, trade shows, summits, and specialised forums, spanning technology, commercial strategy, distribution, sustainability, design, operations, finance, investment, wellness, and talent. Whether you are planning to attend long-established flagships or smaller niche events focused on emerging themes, this calendar is here to support your planning and help you make the most of the year ahead.

CU in 2026!
