Following the success of Experience UK’s recently published Experience on the High Street market report, Experience on Main Street Conference will take place at the Curve Theatre, Leicester on 25 April 2023 and will explore the opportunities within high street, public realm and lifestyle destinations.
This one-day event organised by Experience UK Trade Association will bring together a mixture of government, city and local authorities, developers, planning authorities, architects, cultural and business districts and retail estate owners, offering a unique networking opportunity and will allow visitor experience suppliers to learn first-hand business practice and opportunities in order to engage in new partnerships.
The Conference will feature a series of informative and engaging keynote presentations, panel sessions, round-tables and networking, inviting delegates to tailor their visit to suit their company aspirations and purpose of attending the event. There will also be plenty of refreshment breaks, a networking lunch and evening social mixer, where participants can meet with fellow UK visitor experience suppliers and the key custodians to unlock potential partnerships in this emerging field.
Attendees will also be able to gain access to the EoMS Research report which has been produced in partnership with the Department for Business and Trade (formally DIT).
The Experience on Main Street Conference is designed to be of value to technology and design companies offering cutting-edge services and solutions to revitalise the UK high streets.

Emily Smith, Experience UK Trade Association comments: “The changing face of retail over the past ten years has resulted in a reimagination of the use of high
streets, shopping centres and public realm. Custodians of towns and cities are keen to make their high streets and venues thriving places once again and are eager to meet the companies who can make the magic happen. Attending the Experience on Main Street Conference will give attendees the platform to discover the opportunities and make the connections to be at the forefront of this emerging trend.”
