The All
Party Parliamentary Group for Events (APPG) will hold its first event of the
new Parliament in May.
The event, hosted by
Shaun Davies, MP for Telford, and chair of the APPG, will be
a private dinner held in the House of Commons on Tuesday 6 May 2025.
Invited guests will
include Parliamentary members of the APPG, along with the recently registered
Group and Corporate members, alongside senior leaders from across the UK events
sector.
The APPG is also
actively involved in supporting the upcoming 2025 Global Policy Forum,
organised by The Business of Events, with Shaun Davies providing an update at
the forum and several Members of Parliament also scheduled to attend. The Global Policy Forum is set to take place on Tuesday 1 April, having been rescheduled from February due to the Parliamentary recess.
The APPG, which has been
operating since 2011, is the UK event industry’s voice in Westminster, and is
working to increase the value and profile of the sector with MPs, government ministers and policymakers within Parliament and across Whitehall.
The APPG is managed by
industry think tank The Business of Events, which also acts as special advisors
to the group.
More information on the
work of the APPG can be found on its official website.
