The All-Party
Parliamentary Group (APPG) for Events has confirmed
that its Annual General Meeting (AGM) will take place on Tuesday 3 March 2026
at 1pm in Portcullis House, Westminster.
The AGM is held each year in accordance with Parliamentary
requirements, ensuring that the APPG fulfils its obligations within four months
of the end of its reporting year, which concludes on 17 April 2026.
As required under new Parliamentary procedures, the meeting will
be chaired by an independent chair, nominated by the Office of the Commissioner
of Standards. In line with updated rules, the AGM must take place in person on
the Parliamentary estate, on a sitting day for both Houses.
Martin Rhodes MP, chair of the APPG for Events, said: “The
APPG for Events plays a vital role in representing the interests of the UK
events sector within Parliament. Our AGM is an important opportunity to
reaffirm that commitment, hear directly from members and outline our ongoing
work to ensure the industry’s voice continues to be heard at the highest
levels.”
PR and communications agency Davies
Tanner, through its The
Business of Events think tank and advocacy network, manages
the APPG for Events and acts as a special advisor to the group.
