Unafraid to challenge the sector

The award-winning Fringe has evolved to become one of Housing’s most popular theatres, building its reputation on sessions that have “strictly no powerpoint, jargon or cliché”.

You can expect inspiring, entertaining and always candid content that is unafraid to tackle hard-hitting issues head on yet in a creative, fun and inclusive environment.

 

This year’s theme is climate emergency, taking inspiration from the camps of Extinction Rebellion. We plan to galvanise the audience, not just on environmental issues, but standing up for change on a range of topics that the sector is passionate about.

 

Come and hear from activists and campaigners, politicians, expert commentators, sector leaders and up-and-coming talent who are shaking up the sector, presenting real solutions to challenges and a hopeful vision for the future.

 

Be part of the change, be part of the Fringe.

"We found Housing 2019 to be a highly effective event and a great place to launch our new system. Overall the exhibition provided high quality leads and consistently high footfall throughout the three days. We were so impressed, that in 2020 we have decided to increase our stand size from 36m2 to 108m2"

"The experience is a unique mix of networking, fun and learning. I have never experienced such a broad range of forward-thinking ways of hosting and presenting such as the silent talks that were happening around the venue and the model homes"

"In my opinion, it is the single most important housing event of the year where all serious sector leaders convene. To miss the event you run the risk of falling behind the leading pack."
